A landscape photographer's tour
Stopping off at Seattle
Keith's travels in the Pacific Northwest - September-October 2007
Staying with a friend in Seattle gives us a chance to look at the city.
- This photo-diary covers some of my travel photography from a driving trip starting at Seattle, Washington in September/October 2007. It's a great place for a vacation, or just a road trip along the Pacific coast to photograph some of the scenery. If you've any questions about the hotels/inns/motels where I stayed, then please do feel free to drop me a line.
Not something I tend to do much when travelling on my own - visit a big city, in this case Seattle...

Seattle, and not raining...
Still the great market

all kinds of 'stuff'


Then a trip to the Space Needle, by monorail

It's a long way up...

On the way in to the lifts

An excellent view from the top - note the big 14,000 feet volcano trying to hide in the background

I took several images to stitch into a high resolution panoramic shot, but don't have the image stitching software I use, on my laptop
This is after Karen was glad to get to ground level again :-)

On the way back, we grabbed seets at the front...





Afterwards, a walk through town...
This in the Steinway shop

This interesting narrow building is the Mariners shop (baseball) where Karen wanted to do some shopping
The tower next to it is one of the Westin towers

I was using a shift lens (hand held) to correct perspective, as in the shot below

In the evening we went to Bellvue, for another excellent meal - the town has new large buildings going up all over the place.
The view is from where we went to eat...

And, just for folks back home who think the LG has a big bar collection...
