Thanks Doug for vision. We had rain today, enough to find homes in our leaky roof and clean the air.

So the sky was especially bright and clear tonight!

Hi, Asher,

Beautiful!

The power service drop in the foreground (and its hooded entrance stack on the left) adds an amazing element. The stack is like a mysterious vulture-like creature overseeing the rest of the scene.

The combination of noise and (I think maybe) compression artifacts, especially on the various utility drops, produces a mysterious effect that seems just right for this image.

Bravo.

Amazing about the neighbor!

Best regards,

Doug

Tonight, once again the local sky has been throughly washed by rain and we can see the colors in the neighboring but distant areas where dust is still hanging in the air.

This gives us a Kodachrome sky and when we add the silhouettes of our garden trees, it’s simply an awesome from our garden windows looking north!

Today we had no rain today so some big city pollution gathered in the skies, so immediately after the sun dipped into the horizon we had a glow.

I allowed the free Google software, Snapseed, to emphasize the hues of the sky.

This creates as Kodachrome intense background to the City’s winter-naked California Oak trees of the street, (beyond my garden, seeming to line up with the 8 meter high palms, which the landscaper, (some 2 decades back), had assured me would grow to 1.5 meters, maximum!

Tomorrow we’re not expecting rain yet we have dark foreboding clouds lingering from the stormy weekend!

We are so fortunate to get views one only olds for on vacation or travel to fabulous places!

We get such views, nightly. I think the silhouette EF out palms and beyond tgst the city street trees against the sky does that so well!

Here it’s still normal. Power and informational cable are still overhead in Beverly Hills!

OTOH, snow, hail, sleet, tornadoes and hurricanes are outlawed!
