Last week we a bit of rain, which brought in some dramatic clouds. Clouds that I ordinarily would not have photographed- because I would have been snug indoors staying out of the bad weather.

Living in Southern California I see A LOT of freeways and traffic. Because I am a native Californian I accept this fact, like someone who lives in Alaska accepts that there is a very good chance it will be cold when they wake in the morning. I don’t fight it, I don’t hit my steering [...]
