clouds over Los Angeles

Looking forward to sharing more of my weekend in Los Angeles soon. For now I will leave you with my favorite pics from the airplane. I have never understood people who close the window and don't look out and marvel at the view. The light was dreamy this day and the clouds were unreal. Yum...
Confession #1: I used to think that the dark areas on the sides of the mountains were burn marks from fires. It took until my mid 20's to figure out they were shadows from the clouds.

Confession #2: The first moment this came into view I thought, Wow! That other plane is really close to us!
Off to the gem and bead fair to find some pretty Valentine's day beads...

Posted by: rzhlmybxt fmik at July 30, 2008 11:50 AMThank you for those pictures! LA is my town, and I was raised about 5 minutes north of LAX, so you captured my neighborhood.
I am so glad you got to play with Denise and the girls. You are such a gift to all of us.

Thanks for sharing!
Posted by: RM at February 4, 2008 10:03 AMThe landscape shots are exquisite.
I don't understand people who don't look, either...unless they are deathly afraid of heights, like my cousister is.
Posted by: W. Lotus at February 1, 2008 06:50 PMWow! I absolutely love the last one with the shadow of the plane, that is really great! :)
Nice shots!
Posted by: LLD at February 1, 2008 02:38 PMWow, what a gorgeous day to be seeing L.A. from above! I never get such clear views when I fly to/from here.
Posted by: teresa at February 1, 2008 02:22 PMhey, you were in my neck of the woods this weekend. i love los angeles after the rain, it redeems itself . we live in the shadow of the foothills and i never fail to marvel at their beauty, especially when they are covered in snow and look so clean and bright. the confessions were pretty funny, especially the plane shadow one, sounds like something i would think.
Posted by: mamie at February 1, 2008 01:17 PMMy confession: the first thing I noticed in the last picture wasn't the airplane shadow, but the In-n-Out burger! I don't live in California anymore - sometimes I miss In-n-Out ;)
Posted by: Imogen at February 1, 2008 10:14 AMWhat amazing photos....I love them!!
Posted by: Jennifer at February 1, 2008 10:10 AMThose are stunning - like toytown! I have to ask - what lens are you using there?
Posted by: Sarah at February 1, 2008 09:26 AMWow, that is so incredibly *interesting*. Look at the shadows! The people in those areas are getting some shade and you can actually see it! I can't explain how/why I think that is so neat, but I do!
Glad you had such a good trip!!
Ha, I just realized - that was a lot of exclamation points. Oh well!
