Same eve, whilst I was walking, I caught these photos to show to John.

Warm December Sunset
A treat after our recent cold boot-wearing days, this was a warm & delicious sandal-wearing day in December. I snapped this shot to share with John who was busy with Dori in anticipation of Christmas plans. Lights in the hilltop home hint at dinner preparation and anticipation of night.

A’s photos, same trip(p)
John invited photos and I do have three to share. Over the Santa Ynez valley I enjoyed the long dark shadows cast by the pale trees. When looking at the actual photo, I noticed Cachuma Lake in the upper right corner, so that gives you an idea of location. But for now, here is what drew my eye:
0936 Shadow Sentrys
West of Michael Jackson’s place John noticed this nestling cloud all by itself on my side so I took a quick snap.
0939 Cloud snug & nestled in
Coming back along the coast out of Gaviota, I liked these craggy rocks along shore, and lined them up along the contrasting straight & narrow railroad track. My first glance at the actual photo looked like snow at the top, as though snow was coming down a green mountain. Snowy looking Surf!

Thanksgiving Eve Flight
Thanksgiving Eve we took the historian and for much of the time I held the window up high so he could take photos with his big camera. I got just a couple of shots ‘on the fly’ with my point&shoot, one pretty and the other playful. I took this sunset by shooting backwards as we had just turned Tripp east for the airport:

My quick capture of this offshore oil platform in the fading light amid camera motion created the look of Lifesaver candy lights:

Anne’s Eye
I downloaded some pix from Anne’s camera today, and found this one I like from Monday’s flight. This was just as we were turning at Gaviota Beach heading home to Santa Barbara. Maybe anyone uncomfortable with flying won’t agree, but I like that she matched our tilt rather than trying to level the ocean. Makes for a fun angle on everything.

Point Conception is at the top, and top-right is the part of Vandenberg where the rockets are still launched sometimes.
