The Winter of '20, I think. Maybe '21. Since I lived fairly nearby my daily exercise often included a walk through Seattle Center--where the Space Needle is--and I had plenty of opportunities to shoot pictures of it. Infrared with Sigma Quattro SD, Sigma 30/1.4 and Hoya R72 filter.

2125 Western Avenue. Seattle, Washington. Infrared with Sigma Quattro SD, Sigma 30/1.4 and Hoya R72 filter.

...after all it's quite obvious what's going on. 😳 Suffice to say it's a modern dance at Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle, 2017. Olympus OM2n with Arista EDU 400 film.

Time to get those trees trimmed I'd say. A home in Seattle. (Infrared with Sigma Quattro SD, Sigma 30/1.4 ART and Hoya R72 filter.)

The Winter's annual defoliation provides a gradual reveal: It's the Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle. (An infrared image taken with a Sigma Quattro SD, Sigma 30/1.4 ART lens and a Hoya R72 filter)

Discovery Park in Seattle was once a military installation, Ft. Lawton, which I think was opened in 1900. The buildings there are all ex-military housing (officers' homes) or administration. The mountains on the horizon are the Olympics, so in this view you are seeing the Olympic Peninsula...

A deciduous tree of some species against the backdrop of the Frank Gehry-designed Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle. Digital infrared with Sigma Quattro SD (IR Cut filter removed), Sigma 30/1.4 ART lens, and Hoya R72 filter.

The Columbia Tower is the tallest building in Seattle. Indeed, it is the tallest in all of Washington state. It reaches into the sky some 933 feet. However, it's only the 41st tallest in the USA. I submitted a few images to Black & White Magazine last year and three were selected and...

On 2nd Street in Seattle. As you can see the descending darkness overwhelmed my ability to hold the camera steady for the exposure time required. Nevertheless it's an image that holds some appeal for me. Olympus XA and Fomapan 400 film processed in Rodinal.

Madrona Park. Seattle, Washington. Holga 120N with Fomapan 400 film processed in Rodinal.

There is a small pedestrian bridge at South Lake Union Park in Seattle and one evening late last year this fellow stood on the crest of one of the arches making ready to jump. The drop isn't far,...maybe 10 or 15 feet to the water,...but the fellow couldn't work up the courage to jump. At least...

At the Aurora Avenue underpass. Olympus XA2 with Fomapan 400 film. Rodinal developer.

It's Aurora Avenue in Seattle. While living in Seattle for 6 months I had no facility to process film (all my stuff was in storage). Now that I've moved on from Seattle I've gotten my stuff out of storage and a couple of weeks ago I processed some film that I shot there. I'll probably post a...

When I first saw this image I immediately thought of Fritz Lang's sci-fi classic Metropolis. It's the Nexus building in Seattle. Infrared with Sigma Quattro Sd, Sigma 30/1.4 and Hoya R72 filter.

This lighthouse is located in Discovery Park in Seattle. It has been in service since 1881 I believe, and is still a working lighthouse today. Infrared with Sigma Quattro Sd, Sigma 30/1.4 and Hoya R72 filter.

Seattle. Infrared with Sigma SD Quattro, Sigma 30/1.4 and Hoya R72 filter.

Crazy reflections enhanced by the infrared light. Sigma Quattro SD with Sigma 30/1.4 and Hoya R72 filter.

For some years Seattle has been a hotbed of construction and I find the cranes that facilitate the builds to be very interesting things. There must be hundreds of them at work in the city on any given day. Here's just one.

I made this shot while visiting Discovery Park in Seattle. Infrared with Sigma Quattro SD with Sigma 30/1.4 Art lens and Hoya R72 filter.

I may have posted this one before. If I have don't bother looking if you don't want to. ;) The central library was opened in 2004. I think I shot this image about three years ago. Olympus OM2n with Kodak Gold 200 film.
