Mt. Rainier from the Columbia Tower in Seattle
We were at a business function last night at the Columbia Tower Club, on the 75th floor, just at dusk. This is about the highest point in Seattle. What a photo opportunity! Here is Mt. Ranier, perhaps 50 miles away, clearly showing its conical volcano shape. Let’s hope an eruption is far in the future, although they say we are overdue. In the sky are the beginnings of those saucer-shaped lenticular clouds, it looks to me, but I am no expert.
For more skies around the planet, visit Skywatch Friday, and look up!

Ah, Sara! doesn’t get any better than this! What a fabulous, gorgeous shot! Don’t we live in the most beautiful place ever?
Have a great weekend!
