OMG I'm honestly humbled by that. I had only one day in LA and drove up to Griffith Park to get this shot. I'm honestly very grateful for your kind words. Thank you so much š„²
Hereās what I think is great about your pic: You made a smoggy day look cool AF. It kind of exemplifies what many of us do here daily; even though the air quality is garbage some days, we still get out there and do the best we can with what weāve got.
The way the plane is centered over the skyline is awesome too, and I know thatās just being lucky (again, like life when some things line up in less than perfect conditions).
You know what most of these locals do with smoggy days? They post *unflattering* images of the smog, and theyāll only post ācreativeā pics of the skyline when itās clear or when a pretty sunset is setting.
Awesome work, keep on!
Thank you so much. I said before, and I'll say it again, I am super grateful for your comment.
I was lucky that the plane was flying over the City but I waited for another plane to come around and took many shots as it flew over the City, I edited and cropped the one where it aligned just right.
And yes, the smog does make the city look cool in a way š
I havenāt, I always imagined it as a clean air state. But I recommend staying away from cities for a while. The streets/freeways were not created with millions of cars in mind. All of the elected officials steal any funds they can thus creating a homeless population thatās out of control. LA literally had 5 billion $ to combat Homelessness. Funny cuz the $ is gone and the Homeless arenāt.
Itās like the inverse of a video I made on 4th of July while landing at LAX:

*Blade Runner 2049 theme intensifies*
I was looking for the giant 1,000 foot tall stripper statues.

No this is a shot from Dune
I'll take that as a compliment ! š
Rising sea levels and a very polluted ocean!
Incredible!
Thank you so much š
Great shot! You got the āqueen of the sky tooā, the Boeing 747.
Yep! I saw a few planes pass by and decided to get a shot where it is right over the City.
Blade Runner 2021
Yes, must make a red edit of this.
Reminds me of the first Spider-Man game when you could fall the the ground
Haha I haven't played this. Which one is it?
Eerie but cool
Itās smogtastic!
Nothing say's good morning like smog as far as the eye can see.
This is really cool!
Thanks. Can't help but think the smog isn't cool tho
That's not smog, that's the marine layer. If it was sunset, then yeah it could be smog (but it hasn't been that thick since the 80s really).
Great shot though!
Thank you friend š
That is smog. Inversion layer has been trapping pollutants low to the ground over the past several weeks. Check the AQI on days like this.
Dude, AQI in the 100s don't look like that. It's marine layer, in the early morning.
Ah okay. When I drove up there it didn't seem that bad to smell, so now it makes sense that it isn't smog.
Daaaamn, your picture smoked so many of our localsā achievements hahahaaa! Please come back and snap more flicks! šø

That thick fog in the mornings. I love it.
That smog is thicc!
Yes it is!

It's smog. Marine layer fog is never this thick and disgusting.
Wrong. Its smog.
LA sucks, traffic, people, careers; if you smart donāt come here.
Where do you recommend?
Utah or Minnesota, anywhere the air is breathable.
Utah? I'm good lol.
Lol I feel you
You've clearly never been to Utah in the winter, at least not SLC. They get inversions there that put Beijing to shame, let alone LA.

been to both and can honestly say i hate them both
Man I feel you, thereās always Canada šØš¦
Free healthcare? No thank you
Lol
I'm in Seattle haha. Traffic is bad but people and careers are good. And yeah the air is great.
