Facebook cover - LA

Help me find a great picture of Los Angeles for a Facebook cover image.
I'm looking for a Facebook cover photo of the city of Los Angeles -- either the downtown skyline or the city grid, either day or night.
Features such as the San Gabriel Mountains, Hollywood Hills, Griffith Observatory, or the ocean are a plus but not necessary. The Hollywood Sign should either be very small and not prominent, or not in the image at all.
If the image is public domain or Creative Commons license, that's a plus.
Facebook cover photos are 851 pixels wide by 315 tall, though I think if you upload a bigger image it will drink it down to size. So bigger is better; bigger with a significantly-wider-than-tall aspect ratio is even better, and of course visually striking is wonderful.
Any ideas?

Just filter the Flickr search to Creative Commons only, so that you are only seeing photos you can use legally.

You can use my cover photo if you'd like.

Take a spin up Mulholland Drive.... stop at one of the view points and snap away! You can see the whole of Los Angeles all the way to the Ocean (kind of) smog can get in the way, but even the smog can look glorious and smokey and cool in those snaps.
