Today in Southern California

Post by California Girl »

It was absolutely gorgeous today! I took these pictures in San Clemente during my lunch hour and I thought I'd share some good weather with you frozen folks! Normally, you would see Catalina Island on the horizon, but that grayish band you see at the horizon line is smog and it blots out the island most of the time. Today I could see the tips of the island sticking up over the haze, but I couldn't capture it with my camera to show you.

WAITIN' FOR SOME GNARLY WAVES, DUDE!

LOOKING NORTH FROM THE SAN CLEMENTE PIER
The building on the sand is the lifeguard station and the condos on the bluff are condos - no big hotels here.

Stay warm! 8)

Forgot to mention, I'd even welcome being sweaty right now.

Hi CG!

Nice pics as usual. Is the sky really so blue or have you editted the pics in a special way?

Ha! Linne you caught me! I did process the photos in Photoshop and punch up the color a little, but the photos are still pretty accurate. When we have a gorgeous day, it's just beautiful!

P.S. I noticed that the blues look a lot more vibrant on my work computer than they do on the computer at home.

Ya, that looks just like where I live...NOT.

Picture in your mind Siberia, with wind whipping in a way that only a bad Russian play write could describe. Seriously, if this keeps up, I could go "Shining" pretty soon.
