The Last Breath

March 21st, 2009

If you have been watching the news you know that the Pope issued an apology to those abused in the Irish churches. This is a picture of a statue inside Notre Dame, Paris, with Pope Pious in a memorable fashion.
Happy first official day of spring!

The Nine


December 12th, 2009

On the eve of the year anniversary of the start of our major snow storms last year, I thought about all that gets lost in the coverage. One of those things which gets lost is the animals. What happens when it floods? Cows get stranded on an island.

The Indian and the Surfboard


November 19th, 2009

As you walk down the stairs out of Pike Place Market, you might catch these two side by side in the apartments across the way. I have seen them for years, however, just recently I decided to snap them on the way out.

An Evening With the Sounders



November 4th, 2009

This week the Seattle Sounders will compete in a winner moves on game with the Houston Dyanamo. Last weekend I was privileged to not only buy tickets, but then to win better seats through a local radio station. If you have never been to a game, the Seattle Sounders are quickly becoming a must see attraction. With the lively atmosphere Seattle is becoming the Yankees of the MLB or the Patriots of the NFL .

All I Want for Christmas.......No More Construction!


November 3rd, 2009

As there was nothing better to do today, I decided to head out and take pictures of the most dreaded word in a Northwesterner's dictionary: Construction. For the past two decades, road construction has been a way of life for everyone here in the emerald city. It seems everywhere you turn, regardless of time of year. I long for the day, where I can drive from point A to point B without having to see some of these colorful road detours.

Snow Falling on Pines


October 29th, 2009

A
Skiers dream, as the first snow of the season fell this week in the low mountains. Rising through the fog,the peaks of the Cascades were witness to a mysteriously beautiful view.

Storybook Canopy

October 25th, 2009

Today features a guest contributor.

I walked through the garden as a child does in a storybook. The kind of story that involves fantastical, twisty trees that shelter from the cold, crisp, autumn air. And scattered leaves that catch fire from drops of light that fall carelessly from the sky. Had the garden allowed, I would have sat myself under this tree, opened the pages of a similar story, and read it through the morning; But alas, it was forbidden. So I take with me this picture of my storybook canopy and remember the imagination of my childhood'

Welcome to 200!!!

October 23rd, 2009

As a celebration of my 200th post a riddle is told.

1.) Where a "Full 90" is required.

2.) This Stadium is recognized as the official host of Washington States Gold and Purple Day. As Declared by Cristine Gregoire.

3.) This ______ is for you!

4.) If a Siesta is what you need, a street is where I am.

5.) The "Waining Minutes" reveal the Emerald of the City.

The first post to get all 5 correctly, wins a fantastic free print of a picture of their choosing, either poster size (24x36 or smaller).



Today is a Self Portrait. As I was at Snoqualmie Falls recently, there was nothing to capture or put the perspective of the falls into focus. Being as such, I decided I would try to enter my art, and become not the focus, but a balancing solution to the equation, of the capture

Going Up


October 16th, 2009

In the heart of downtown Seattle, there is a brick building which will soon be towered over by a new developing sky scraper. As I was walking by, I was struck by the shear size of development which has taken place over the last century. Buildings which once were the prize of their day, the Smith building, are now dwarfed by buildings two to three times their size. Even the Columbia Tower building is 3/4 the size of the former World Trade Center in NYC. At 80 stories it towers over Seattle and our bit of metropolia here in the northwest.

Standing Stones

October 12th, 2009

What a view! I decided to visit a common stomping ground for me in Snoqualmie Falls. The fall is why many decide to call the northwest home. With the changing of colors and crisp cool air, it seems many feel invigorated by the change of seasons.

Blue Seat Special


October 9th, 2009

As the fall comes into full swing, for those of us who are sports fans, October represents the best month of the year. Hear in the northwest we have our own fall sports to be proud of, The Seattle Seahawks. The 12th Man has become a nationwide phenomenon, with Qwest Field being known as the loudest stadium in the world. Recently I took a tour of the stadium and saw it fitting as we head into a weekend home game, come Sunday, these blue seats will be filled with thousands of dedicated fan cheering on their team in frigid conditions.

Flavor

October 8th, 2009

With all the flavor available on the grocery store shelves sometimes I am left to wonder what food actually tastes like, without it.
