Got a wonderful early Christmas present this morning. Saw this guy perched on an agave stalk right outside my house. Looks like a Merlin. If it is, I’ve never seen one locally before. Just a gorgeous bird. Photo taken in Poway, CA. #birdtwitter

Just an amazing sunset tonight. From Poway, CA.

Took these shots from my house in Poway, CA tonight. Could faintly see some color early in the evening without the camera, but needed the camera to really see what was there.

Wife and I decided to go chasing rainbows for Valentine’s Day. Headed out to Borrego and found this beauty around Culp Valley. It was a fun day in the desert. #rainbow #anzaborrego

Gorgeous sunset tonight. It was fairly short-lived, but very pretty white it lasted. View from Poway, CA. ⁦@eyesonsdskies⁩ #cawx #sandiegoweather #sunset

[Doug Minshell @DougMinshell]

Took this shot a little after sunset and didn't see the really cool colors with the naked eye, but they showed up on the photo and became more vivid as I darkened it a little bit. Turned out to be pretty interesting. ⁦@eyesonsdskies⁩ #cawx #sandiegoweather

Awesome sky a little before sunset tonight. The clouds disapated pretty fast after this so sunset wasn't as great, but still pretty. View from Poway, CA. ⁦@eyesonsdskies⁩ #cawx #sandiegoweather #sunset

Great sunset out there tonight with all the leftover thunderstorm clouds. View from Poway, CA. ⁦@eyesonsdskies⁩ #cawx #sandiegoweather #sunset
