The sun also rises on Twitter

Although I’ve been tracking images of beautiful California sunsets for a few months, I’ve unintentionally ignored the rising of the sun. Twitter users have been more thoughtful than me, though. For example, Charlie Lieberman of Los Angeles shared this image on Novemeber 10. “The view from our location this morn.”

Beautiful sunsets from all over the Southland

From the ongoing series of great California sunsets, I offer this latest collection, which includes quite a few shots from Venice and Sunset Cliffs. But let’s begin with a more urban selection this time. It’s a “Staple Center Sunset” as shared by Lee tracy of Compton.

Here are more great pictures of sunsets captured by Southern Californians on Twitter.

California sunsets, volume 2

You’ll have to excuse the visual monotony in this collection — not to mention the repitition found in the first collection of California sunsets — but this is something that I just can’t get enough of. Neither can many other Twitter users in Southern California. On September 20, Ladera Ranch’s Josh Elliott summed it up in this perfect equation, “Tonight’s sunset = amazing.”
