Los Angeles viewed from Griffith Park hills 1/9






This day was rather clear with high clouds (making the pics a little better not blotted by the sun). Vegetation finally getting a nice green; there's hints of flowers about to come out in a couple of months. Recovery from the fire much better in the western part of the park than the east (2007 fires). Here are some views of various parts of L.A. and the valley. Griffith park unique in that one doesn't have to take the same route every time. Water available as it's piped into the park with pumps.

Brand Canyon 1/3/2010






Here is a few shots of this canyon about the library. The chaparral coming back quick 7 years after a fire lit by a satanist. Today was exceptional in that one could see every nook and cranny for 360 degrees from the top. Great views of the sea which turned a golden white color about 230P.
