Shooting structures damaged by cars with flash at night in the city that lives and dies by the car, RJ presents a collection of abstract white forms on black - an excellent portrait of a side of Los Angeles.
Check out the whole series here.
You can purchase a signed copy in a first edition of 500 here. The book is gorgeous and I'll be hounding him for info on where he got it printed.
Also, see these write ups on the book from:

"In an email exchange, RJ informed me that he had the book printed in Hong Kong with Diya USA and seemed to have good things to say about them. He says the website makes them look worse than they really are and that you can even get a quote from them online."
Love this site! I appreciate that you're trying to provide a resource for LA photographers.

I work at First Person Arts, and we're looking for documentary photographers to help spread the word about our nationwide competition First Person America: In These Hard Times. We're a Philadelphia-based non-profit organization dedicated to memoir and documentary art in all forms, and this year our goal is to attract essays, photos and films from all 50 states documenting how individuals and communities are coping with economic challenges.

Do you know if "comeing" in the title was misspelled intentionally? Pretty sad if it was overlooked especially since it was on the cover.
Comeing was misspelled intentionally to mirror the broken but never the less stunning imagery of the book. It's is supposed to show that imperfection can be as if not more beautiful than perfection.
Ha, nice. The arabs of old used to intentionally mess up their architecture (see the Alhambra) saying only God is perfect.
