#Snow in the mountains above #LosAngeles.
By mid-afternoon, the patches on Mt. Wilson (barely visible at the left) had faded, though the ridge behind it still has a ton of snow visible.
TODO: Which version of this is on Flickr?

A sundog, looking like a ball of rainbow. The sun was shining through clouds, too hazy to make out the disc, but apparently had a clear path to some ice crystals at just the right angle.

Polliwog Park doubles as a flood control basin, and after 5 days of rain, it’s filling up. Those two arcs out in the water? They’re benches like the one at the lower left.
It’s not the fullest I’ve seen it, though. A few years ago, it filled up to the top of the swing sets. Photos here:

Smoke from two wildfires in and near Los Angeles this morning.
Smoke from two wildfires in and near Los Angeles this morning. The gigantic Woolsey fire causing evacuations in Ventura County, and a smaller fire in Griffith Park. In at least one photo you can see a layer smoke from the smaller fire drifting past the rising plume of the bigger one.
Overloaded! Someone was trying to move boulders on wooden pallets for landscaping, and they seem to have been a bit much for the pallets to handle…

Comments from Facebook:
Jim Vibber: Possibly. The pallet underneath looks okay, and the band around the boulder *might* be tight. I wonder if the upper pallet was intentionally smashed to keep the boulder from rolling back and forth during transportation.

Kelson Vibber: Hmm, that could be it.

Surprisingly simple #brain #cupcakes suitable for #Halloween or any sort of #zombie event. The hardest part is actually getting the icing the right color.

Heatsink inside!
Heatsink inside! A photo I originally took to try to get some idea of what the power supply was in this particular computer without pulling things out, so I could figure out what limitations I was working with for upgrading. I think it looks interesting.
I’ve since upgraded every component I *can* in it: CPU, RAM, SDD, graphics…but it still can’t handle The Bard’s Tale IV, which is really disappointing, since I’ve been looking forward to it since the start of the Kickstarter campaign.
Sunset lighting up the clouds before tonight’s rainstorm.
Sunset lighting up the clouds before tonight’s rainstorm. It was one of those moments when you just stop wherever you can because you know that if you try to get to a good spot, the light will have changed and the moment will be gone. So there are power lines and telephone poles, but at least I captured the light.
Interesting clouds shortly before sunset. Framed as best as I could from the grocery store parking lot.

I don’t normally post pictures of food, but when I do, there’s usually something odd about it.

Google Photos reminded me that it’s been exactly 2 years since she was going to debut the cosplay at Long Beach Comic Con, but ended up not being able to go. We did a photoshoot anyway that morning, and she’s worn the outfit at several conventions since then, including the following year’s #LBCC

Nighttime #FerrisWheel. You can’t tell that the sky is covered with smoke because the layer is too high.
