Ocean Views category now on front page

By Stephen, on January 9th, 2012%

I originally kept the Ocean Views category off the front page, because I had ambitions to put up a picture every day or two. Well, that hasn’t worked out, so I will let those posts show up on the front page. They will certainly not interfere with the web crawlers that grope their way through my site hourly. The ocean pictures posts should be infrequent enough that they won’t bother the one or two actual humans that visit the site looking for parallel computing stuff or Hiperwall history.

Jan 8 – Rising morning clouds

By Stephen, on January 8th, 2012%

The weather got a bit colder and foggier yesterday, but this morning, we had bright sunshine on top of the hill, while the fog settled in the valleys and on the ocean. Mid-morning, though, the fog rose in great billows, as these photos show. You can see Catalina Island in a couple of the pictures, and in one it is clear that the fog does not extend all the way there.

The cloud/fog layer was right atop the ocean at dawn.

We had a colorful and spectacular sunset. I’m including lots of images, because I think each has some slightly different appeal.

On 10/10, as I drove home, the fog was rolling in, but as I climbed the hill, I emerged from the fog and clouds to see a beautiful sunset.

While these are mostly sky photos, they are from the back deck and front deck of my house, and if the weather were clear, the ocean would be visible. Catalina island is visible in a couple of them.
