ASSOCIATED PRESS
Los Angeles – 7 January 2025
1. Still photograph of fire in Pacific Palisades neighborhood
++PARTIALLY COVERED++
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Los Angeles – 15 January 2025
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Ethan Swope, Photojournalist for AP:
“The Palisades Fire was one of the most destructive fires that I’ve ever seen and this photo of palm trees burning was one that stood out. The winds were really what, um, stuck with me from the fires. They were lofting embers block after block, starting new fires, homes burning one after another. You know one of the things we try and do as a photojournalist is to contextualize where we are and localize a story. And for me the palm trees, really a symbol of Los Angeles, burning, was indicative of the times we are in.”
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Altadena, California – 9 January 2025
3. Still photograph of Ari Rivera, rear, and Anderson Hao holding each other in front of their destroyed home
++PARTIALLY COVERED++
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Los Angeles – 15 January 2025
4. SOUNDBITE (English) John Locher, AP photojournalist:
“I chose that picture because it shows what matters in tragedies like this and that’s the lives impacted. When you see and hear about thousands of buildings destroyed, a picture like this can kind of remind you that each of those homes were filled with the lives and the collective memories for the people who lived there.”

Malibu, California – 9 January 2025
5. Still photograph of a VW van among burned out homes
++PARTIALLY COVERED++
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Malibu, California – 15 January 2025
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Mark J. Terrill, AP photojournalist:
“It was just a splash of color among a sea of grey devastation. It also seems to have struck a chord with people. I think it gives people a little bit of hope and that’s one of the nicest things about what I get to do for a living is sometimes pictures move people and this really seems to have done that.”

Altadena, California – 13 January 2025
7. Still photograph of caution tape cordoning off burned townhomes and trees
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Carolyn Kaster, AP photojournalist:
“I had been walking through a devastated part of Altadena. There were no people anywhere, just destruction and charred trees. The yellow caution tape was tied around a tree that was cordoning off town homes that had been destroyed. I’m gonna keep photographing the trees because they’re part of us, part of this natural place.”

9. Still photograph of charred bunny sculpture at Bunny Museum
++PARTIALLY COVERED++
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Los Angeles – 15 January 2025
10. SOUNDBITE (English) Chris Pizzello, AP photojournalist:
“When I got sent up to Altadena on Thursday morning, the place was pretty much destroyed. And the first thing I saw was the charred bunny sculpture on the left and as I was shooting that a very weary looking firefighter walked toward the camera and gave the picture some scale. I knew it was a powerful image and I really hope the Bunny Museum comes back in all its glory.”
