Business Meeting Seattle Style

Business Meeting Seattle Style, originally uploaded by Seattle Daily Photo.

Okay, so we had snow flurries here yesterday and today, and these people are holding a meeting outdoors to accommodate the pooches. I panned out to show that, no, this isn't Paris--the only other city whose citizens seem this dedicated to their dogs.

View From Above

This is what the couple on the observation deck of Smith Tower could see from where they were standing. The Space Needle is straight ahead. I liked the square windows and negative/positive lines of windows, plus the reflection. Lines and strips.

Whew!

The sea plane looked like it would collide with the building from my point of view. I was glad to see it had flown past the north side of the building and had emerged beyond! Who manages seaplane flight plans. . .seems a bit too close for comfort.

High Dive Day

High Dive Day, originally uploaded by Seattle Daily Photo.

The Bittersweets are touring from their SF Bay Area home base and landing at the High Dive Saturday night Jan 20 at 10 PM. Their music is great. I shot this image of the club's sign one morning in summer.

Sticky Situation

Gum wall at the Market Theater. (Click and choose larger image to fully appreciate this).

What's Your Flavor?

How much DNA is left in that gum? Some people tend to manipulate an image rather than just stick a coin in a wad. Can you see the blue flower?

Santa Through the Nordstrom Window

From the sidewalk outside Nordstrom one can view visitors through the window having their photos taken with Santa. Some Seattle families, like these beautiful children, wait in line for a long while each year for the chance to tell St. Nick their Christmas wishes.

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Lenin

This controversial sculpture in the heart of the Fremont district is lighted every year during the holiday season. Here I show the star-topped head and back. An historically bloody figure encased in lights that form a Christmas tree with a star on top--certainly gives one pause to wonder. . .
