up too early ... 9.1

otis, our dog, woke me up at 4:00 am the other day. i couldn't get back to sleep so decided to go to signal hill for sunrise ... i've taken a few photo classes over the last few months and the instructors always say that the best time to shoot is just before sunrise ... the light is soft and perfect. so i trotted over to signal hill to see for myself. the marine layer was thick, so the shots i was hoping for, like downtown LA in the distance, the lb airport, the port of lb, etc were all obscured ... but then i saw these spider webs in the bushes ... made it so the morning wasn't a total bust.
