Owing to being on the wrong side of a packed Boing-757 en route to Atlanta during twilight on Dec 1st, and finding only clouds in coastal southern California during sunrise today, here are stand-in shots from the archive for yesterday and today... at the top from a year ago on Tuesday (and better large on black), in the middle from a year ago yesterday (also better LOB), and above from four years ago today (again better LOB)... all three very sweet!

Awesome colours... truly breath-taking.... thrubeckyslens · 2009-12-04: 09:27
