Thanks for the info, Joshua -- I know there is dramatic and turbulent weather hitting most of California. Ironically, I am basking in full sunlight up in Washington near the coast with around 48F and not near to So Cal for another week or so. Please keep posting these sorts of striking So Cal images if you can!
Jim, the shooting conditions became worse and worse towards the end of yesterday, Saturday. There was a blanket of grey high cloud ccver, rendering the sky over the area grey and we didn’t see the sunset at all. Actually, I didn’t bother to go out and just monitored the situation from where I live. One a difference a day makes!

Some flat field stitching with the A7rII, Mamiya 80mm f1.9 plus Zörk Panorama Shift Adapter and Fotodiox Shift Adapter combined. First @ f4, second @ f2.8, effective sensor size approx. 63mm x 42mm. I took some shots @ f1.9 but I like the f4 and f2.8 shots more…
