just up the street


About five minutes - a quick five minutes - from our front door.  Not bad for Los Angeles!  This has a great optical illusion built into it, so it looks as though the clouds are swirling over and around distant mountains: the skyline in fact ends with the greeny-brown, but the effect was a magical one this morning - even more magical than it looks here.  On the other hand - it would be great to think that this was thin autumnal mist, which in part it probably is, but with a hefty and unhealthy dose of pollution.  Air quality has been terrible recently: some people have blamed it on all the cargo ships idling off Long Beach, but it may just as well be increased traffic fumes lingering in the fairly still air.
