செவ்வானம்

For a change, this is NOT sunset but sunrise.  For a change, this is NOT Torrey Pines beach in SD but Boston.

Got up in the morning and came down to have my tea. Nature greeted me with a lovely display of brilliant colors.Took the photos from the front porch of our Boston home. It was end of November and there was some snow on the ground.





I think Red color has some magical power. Always fascinating and exciting!

If you ever feel afraid...

If you ever feel afraid of anything, 
always turn around and face it. 
Never think of running away.

Blue Angels

நீலத் தேவதைகள் வானில் பறந்தன
காலத் தேவைகள் கணத்தில் மறந்தன
 
 Every year during October, Marine Corps Air Station (US military) in San Diego put on their annual Air Show.  It was from today to Sunday. My office is on the11th floor and has a balcony with a nice view towards the air station. Around 3 in the afternoon, bunch of us stepped out on the balcony and watched the Air show for free :)

The highlights today were the "US Navy Blue Angels" and the "Canadian Snowbirds". It is always an awesome sight to watch these planes flying in formation, with their wings and noses almost touching.



Movie Trivia:
Lot of scenes for the movie Top Gun (Tom Cruise &  Kelly McGillis)


were shot in the San Diego Air Station and in the "Kansas City Barbecue" bar. This bar has a notorious shrine. Do your own web search and you will find some interesting info ;)
