Seattle Firsties

[jwyche]

You wanna know what I'm doing in Seattle! Because you do, that's why.





For Seattlites, this 8-car stop-motion style description of a rolling car is old news. For me, new news! So I subject you to it.

The flight in was gorgeous. Guess what mountain range this is :)



The is the view from where I'm staying.



It's been really sunny for my visit. Seems like golden hour lasts like threeeeeee hours here.







Went the the Olympic Sculpture Park like a good tourist. I shot this through one of the dots of a walkway and got an interesting double-exposure type result.







This tree is made of metal. After recently doing lots of drawing type studies of branching things (arteries, veins) I appreciate this much more.



Calder's Eagle





This morning, I saw this guy.



I drank an extra stout at Pike Place Brewery. It was lovely! All the tables had tulips, which seems to be a popular flower here.



I almost interrupted a homeless guy's sleep in order to snap this one off:



Please God next time a tiled wall needs some repair, let them do it in a color which has nothing to do with the original tile color.



Hopefully I get a bit better at taking pictures of the residents here before I go.

This place is so fun. :) Thanks for looking, even if none of it is "saucy" this time!

I love the museum, are you staying at the ace? eat some crumpets around the flower shop from the market, eat the piroshky's every day! the pink door is worth finding. OMG go into the market spice store and get my pound of "knock out tea" and i will gleefully pay you double for it. Crawl through the book stores in pioneers square! and make sure you find Salume and ask for the fresh mozzarella and hot salame!

I'm staying with a friend on Fifteenth and Madison.

Heard about the market spice store several places but so far haven't been.

Thanks for the recommendations. Next time we'll all go together?

Oh thank you! I think I needed a break from my regular environment and this has been perfect.

There's some fantastic ones in here! Woop.

Excellent taste in music you've got there btw.

Aw, thanks. These are all kinda mediocre I guess as far as new visions of Seattle, but I'm having a blast.

And yes, it's lovely music. :D
