It is Redondo Beach on Santa Monica Bay on a typical day. My stomping grounds as a kid.

It is Mount Pilatus. Here are two additional photos of that area.

The first is of the little hotel in which we stayed overnight after arriving that day in Zurich. I have family in Lucerne but we like to stay overnight and get a good nights sleep whenever we have time. This simple but adequate hotel is so nicely situated on Lake Lucerne in the village of Weggis.

The second photo is from the summit of Mount Pilatus looking back at the lake.

Wait, who's the best at this

Impromptu, as always. Pass by, notice some 'configuration' merely by chance, quickly snap by hand with my smartphone and move on. Nothing planned, studied or staged, no equipment - just a coincidence.
