Traffic Lights, Signs and Controls: Photo of Me Going Thru Red Light. Can't Afford the Fine or Ins. Points

My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: California.

I live in Palm Springs, was house sitting in LA when I went through a red light in Culver City. I was notified by mail with a photo of the violation. It's $500 plus I have to go to LA on or before 1/26/18 to pay. I am a low income senior and cannot afford the bail. Is there anything I can do to get the bail reduced?
