Description
ehh yea, so, in spirit of the 1st WA Dev Meet, I thought I'd put up a picture of my lovely home city, Seattle, Washington.This was taken from Kerry Park atop Queen Anne Hill, probably the place from which the Seattle skyline is photographed most.
But this... is a rather... un-typical cityscape shot, eh?
Well I'd like to think so!

I love that spot best place on Queen Anne to see the city. I was there one time and a bum started yelling at me. I love how you took such a used spot and made it different and amazing.

Being a fellow Seattle-ite, I just want to say I really love the picture. This truly captures the beauty of the city. (:
I've been to Kerry Park, and I've seen many a pictures, but never quite from this angle.
Wait - Kerry Park viewpoint most photographed? ... I don't know about that.. try Admiral Viewpoint? (:

I definitely like this skyline/city scape, you take a different approach and originality is always a plus (duh lol) this is definitely one of my favorite cityscapes i have seen.

such an amazing, beautiful idea. so many elements crossfadeblendtogether, matching in oval round symmetry, couples passing going only shadows on cityscape nightlife.

Cool idea. It really does work on so many levels, there's so much to look at. I especially love contrast between the glimmering city to the roughnes of the steps.

wow, nice shot... i should go to queen anne hill to savor the city scape sometime...
i actually think the two people add a nice flavor... night-cityscapes + couples = nice pics, IMO (at least i *think* it's a couple...)

Seattle has a lot of hills in the city doesn't it?? I remember having to walk a lot. (we were looking around in the downtown market)
You managed to make all the buildings and space needle so beautiful. Great job

Your beautiful pictures make me want to visit Seattle even more than I already do.
This is a fantastic picture. I love how the brilliant Seattle skyline shows through the sculpture almost like a viewing box. You can see a picture in a picture almost. And the color of the sky is just awesome.
Just another example of how talented you really are.

What a unique way of looking at the city. It feels edgy and the box/structure thing is a lovely way to frame the focal points of the city.

the downside with popular seattle stuff, is everyone's been there. Nice shot though, the city could be a lil less exposed and if you could use a off camera flash to rear sync if possible to light up the sculpture as well.

Great shot of a great city... I like how you chose to make your skyline different from the typical skyline shot.. Good idea... The city is a bit over exposed, but I think that adds a special look to the city, kinda ghosty and such...
good work as always from you! Keep it up!

really cool that you can see the skyscapes through that thing. but i think they are a little big too bright, but i'm finicky. anyways, i love the composition and the scenery.
good shot!
