As my plane took off from Los Angeles, CA on the way to Houston, TX this morning, the sun was about to rise over the San Gabriel Mountains. We’ve had a series of spectacular sunrises and sunsets in Santa Clarita over the past few days, so it seems appropriate to post a couple of photos from Monday morning’s show as I fly toward the rising sun at 30,000 feet. (The ability to do this is it’s own little miracle.)

The clouds of late have been organized in some of the most unique ways. Look at the bottom edge of the cloud strip in the photo above. It’s as if it was added with a spray paint stencil in Photoshop. Even as I stood looking at it with my own eyes, it didn’t seem real. It was. Nature for the win.
