So NOT Lunenburg! by Weezilou

So NOT Lunenburg!

I know a few people in Nova Scotia who've never left the Maritimes ... and this would convince them, I know, that they haven't missed a thing! Here we're on final approach to the John Wayne Airport in Orange County (about 40 miles/65km) south of LAX in Los Angeles. It's about 3:30 and rush hour hasn't yet begun!

Now THAT would be a more interesting picture!
Talk about re-entry! This is a dramatic illustration for sure!

Oh, do I know that view! I-5 and the 55 - I've seen that view more than a couple of times. Tray tables up! Welcome back!
September 4th, 2015  
A bird's eye view!! Nice reentry!
September 4th, 2015  
Welcome back, Louise & Ken! So when is the next get together?
September 4th, 2015  
I could get lost just looking at all the roads! Super clear shot from the sky.

@thirdjoe Hi Joe! Joy threw out the welcome banner even before we left the 'burg, and I suggested "a gathering", even throwing in some additional people we'd like to see in SD. She had a smaller retreat in mind and doing some of the post processing techniques together that we've talked about, so it's "just us girls" on a 365 retreat! As I still would also love to see everyone (and Osia is in Hermosa Beach this weekend) I'm still open to the possibility of a mid-way meet-up Fri or Sat... We've really missed everyone! Now that I've rambled on, I hope you're serious about that get together! @panthora @stray_shooter

@salza 43 years we've been here, and yes, I have no idea where I am once I leave the neighbourhood! This is every bit as daunting as it looks (and it's far from the widest or most convoluted in other locations!)

@Weezilou I understand, have a great time!
September 4th, 2015  
@thirdjoe but next week, Fri or Sat? I'm serious!

Terrific capture :)
September 4th, 2015  
Wow, what a view Louise. Think I'll stay in my home province for the next while. LOL
September 4th, 2015  
Oh yeah
September 4th, 2015  
i didn't think rush hour stopped, why are you there?
September 4th, 2015  
makes me feel like picking up one truck and put it on the other skyway. great shot, louise!

@summerfield ...and it's not even Tilt-Shift! You, living in Toronto, probably don't find this as remarkable as, for instance, Nova @novab who's just back from Newfoundland! And to Richard @chard I have to reply in kind, "Why ARE we back?!" Actually , I have follow-up dr appts since I bailed out of a full PT regime. Also, our Ashley asked for our help with the boys while John goes on a "outward-bound" week with students to start the school year...faculty-student bonding time, camping, hiking and working together. We'll have "GranPapa-kiddos" bonding time...a nice reason to return home! (Back in NS on the 20th...)

@Weezilou - any view from above amazes me, even if they're just clouds. our cities seem to be organized looking from that view, whereas this is the view in manila http://365project.org/summerfield/365-still/2014-02-13
and all the people in those houses would go to that building on the upper left for relief from the scorching hot temps. disorganized view, but amazing nonetheless. i wish i was smart enough to learn the numbers and learn how to fly. but maybe it's not too late. no, it's too late. hahaha! i will see youin 2 weeks and change!♥

Great shot Louise!
September 4th, 2015  
Wow fantastic jungle of roads, I would be sure to get lost
September 4th, 2015  
Eeeek! No thanks!
September 4th, 2015  
Welcome to southern California! This is a shocking reality when you are coming from such a lovely picturesque place as Newfoundland!
September 4th, 2015  
Yikes, not for this black duck.
September 5th, 2015  
rather be looking down on it than trying to negotiate it on the ground
September 6th, 2015  
Great shot and view.
