Cities don’t always have to be square.

They call it the Emerald City, but on this night the sky turned all of Seattle purple and blue just as the sun was disappearing! It took me quite a while to get this panorama shooting 19 individual frames handheld and working around window glare, and I really like how it turned out. A combination of good light and clouds like this makes up for all the times I’ve lugged my camera around and the weather didn’t cooperate.

From this angle the funky colors of the Experience Music Project Museum next to the Space Needle almost make it look like part of the sky is missing.

Those of you who know me know that this is one of my favorite photos. If you haven’t seen it, consider this my Christmas present to you. The gift that keeps on giving, the gift of peppers!
This was taken in Seattle at the farmer’s market. First, I spent some time taking pictures of some not very photogenic fish. Those pics aren’t really photo blog worthy. These peppers on the other hand were certainly my favorite shot of the day!

The Seattle skyline is distinctive thanks to the Space Needle. A friend was excited to show off this view from Kerry Park, and for good reason! It is still one of my favorite views of the city.
