Mt Rainier and the stadiums, sunset

Sometimes I forget what a gorgeous city I am honored to live in. Today I didn't.

 

I got off the bus at the regular time, just as the sun was setting. I walked through the market again to see what images were happening, and the evening light was stunning. I saw Rainier (what Seattleites call simply "the Mountain") framed by Seahawks Stadium (NOT Qwest field, mind you), and Safeco Field.

 

Basically, I stood at the north end of Pike Place Market, swapped lenses, used a cement wall to steady my hands, and shot a few images, and this one came out.

 

No postprocessing done. Shot raw and converted in Lightroom after a minor crop.
