The fry wanted to watch the guys who fly big model planes at the soccer field behind my office, so on a Saturday we headed to my place of work. On the way there, I spied some lenticular clouds hanging in the sky over the San Gabriel mountains. They were the only clouds in the entire sky for this warm January day; these were only taken a few minutes apart, but I didn't realize until I posted these how much they had changed shape. Really wished I hadn't forgotten the good camera, as we don't see them that often, but Astronomical Picture of the Day (apod.com) has some much more spectacular photos (including, well whaddaya know, today's).
