loading zone




Same shooting session as sorry we're closed and no parking. Just one block south on a side street.

sorry we're closed



In fact this Enchilada and Taco Salad place is really closed. Closed forever. The windows revealed bare walls and empty floors. I spent the last hour of light shooting on one block of fourth ave and two side streets. Perhaps a mile north of the Duwamish bridge.

no parking



This was taken a little over an hour ago just as the sun was disappearing behind the hills. The location is South Seattle on fourth ave south, north of Michigan St. about half a mile.

Lindmark Machine Works



This was taken this evening less than an hour before sunset in South Downtown Seattle, near the south end of the viaduct. I got permission to shoot at a steel works which was just south of the machine works. Spent a hour there dodging BNSF trains and fork lifts from the steel plant. They obviously have a late shift.

generations #2



I shot this just after 8pm this evening. 300mm, F8, 1/400th ISO400 and very nearly 100% crop so the effective focal length is something awesome, well over 1200mm anyway.

These were taken on Easter Sunday April 21, 2009 late in the day during a storm.

yellow hotel






This is on East Marginal Way S in Seattle. Not far from the Duwamish river. The color in the late sunlight was very intense. I adjusted the gray scale curves but didn't do anything to enhance the color, just left it at default Lightroom settings (all my photos are developed from raw captures).
