Another cloudy day in Seattle, Washington from the Bainbridge Ferry. It's hard to believe it's been 17 years since I took this pic. It was also among my first pics from a digital camera. How time flies. #Seattle #Washington #ElliottBay #cloudy #nuageux #wolkig #overcast #reflection #曇り #街 #bay #baie #Bucht #city
Shot this on the way home the day I got my Canon EOS R5 this was one of the test shots off the new camera, while at the camera store I also bought a new carbon fiber Gitzo tripod, and a Gitzo ball head to go with it, so had a great time with a new camera and tripod :) forgot to get a cable release while i was there so this was shot on self timer so it would not get camera shake from pressing the button , shutter speed at 8 seconds. I would like to note all my shots are setup in manual mode, I do use auto focus, but that is all, so it felt strange to use the self timer to fire the shot. Canons auto focus is lightning fast and works great so mostly do use the auto focus, it does have a problem with very low light focusing. so like on my 5d mark IV in very low light have to manual focus, A, three stop glass graduated neutral density filter was used to even out the light in the sky to the light in the darker zones, final corrections done in photoshop
Early morning moodiness and reflections of the Seattle skyline on Lake Union with fog hovering above the skyscrapers. The image was captured around 5:50am. The conditions were very foggy, but with just enough fog hovering in the sky to reveal the skyline with the downtown buildings below, complemented by their illumination reflected on Lake Union in the foreground. This was a 30-second exposure which creates the long streaks of colorful lights reflected on the surface of the lake. In effect, the goal was to capture the mood, which contrasts with the feel of a sunrise or sunset. This mood or atmosphere is darker, more gothic, and enigmatic.

I took this from a Seattle Ferry of the Seattle Great Wheel when they were first building and installing it. Cranked up the HDR to show details in all of the different building textures
Seattle city before sunset in summer, Mount Rainier with a ravaged snow cover due to unprecedented high temperatures in the distance. Happy weekend to everyone.
View of Seattle from the Space Needle. This was taken with my iPhone 12 Pro using the ultra-wide lens. I then edited it in Lightroom Mobile using a black & white preset from Serge Ramelli.
I-5 cuts through Seattle. Traffic jams have returned almost to pre-pandemic levels.
There are a lot of windows in those skyscrapers.
Happy Window Wednesday!
This image was a result of personal resistance to my own reluctance to journey out and capture some potential magical moments. I had just returned from a week-long photo project on the other side of the world, and was completely jet-lagged and exhausted.
In addition, I had just spent nine hours in a corporate environment that I really didn't care to be (and rarely ever wish to be). When I got home, I was completely drained. Still, the commute home and my observations of the sky and atmosphere were communicating that we could expect a very pleasant evening for photography in Seattle. (This is significant if you know how wet and rainy this particular Spring season has been this year, sans sunshine).
When the photographic senses start tingling, it is excruciatingly difficult to ignore them, even when I want to be wrapped around my blankets in bed.
Alas, I ignored my body's needs in exchange for my photography. Typically (and fortunately), I'm rarely disappointed upon making this type of decision. This image is the latest product from listening to my photographer's intuition. I am very happy with this one.
Sure enough, as soon as I got home, I slept, but only for a while. I instinctively woke up in the middle of the night, and began some post-processing so I wouldn't lose the remaining tingling sensations.

This image of Seattle was captured at Kerry Park last Spring, when low-lying clouds glowed red from Seattle Center's Key Arena below.

Fishing dock on the Seattle waterfront. Boats are heading in to harbor in the distance.
Happy Saturated Saturday!
No tripod? No problem. I used one of those scopes where you pay a quarter to look at the view. I placed my camera on it, set the timer for a two-second delay, and was able to take a low-light, long exposure shot. This is my first foray into night cityscape photography.
Seattle after sunrise looks surprisingly like Seattle before sunrise.

Seattle Skyline from First Hill.Nowadays, Seattle Skyline is "adorned" with cranes due to construction frenzy. About 60 high-rises are being built.
Taken at Ivar's Acres of Clams. It's been around since 1938 and is a classic restaurant on the Seattle waterfront. This is from one of their old ads. I don't know about you, but if I saw people out running around in clam costumes, it would make my day.
Update: While standing in line in San Francisco, I met someone from Seattle (a former Ivar's employee) who used to wear one of these costumes. They said there were handles inside to hold onto, to help keep them in place.
