Puget Sound vista

This southern view of Puget Sound and Vashon Island was taken around the block from my house. Even a little time looking at the sky is a good thing on a clear day, especially.

Tulip time

Not until April, but here’s a quick peek at the unbelievably scenic Skagit Valley Tulip Festival north of Seattle, WA. I really love this image and I am calling it my weekly Top Shot.

Brugmansia flowers

Scrolling through my photo archives, I found this image of huge, tropical brugmansia (Angels Trumpet) flowers from an August 2010 shoot at Seattle’s Volunteer Park Conservatory. See how the buds are yellow but the open flowers are pink? Wild, no?

Sunset with Space Needle

Seattle has some very good view points, and lots of water to reflect the sky.

Bird of paradise flower

This golden yellow is a more unusual color of bird of paradise, usually more orange. Talk about a showy flower! Taken at Seattle’s Volunteer Park Conservatory, of course.

Space Needle fireworks

Seattle does a great fireworks show on New Year’s. This year: no fog! I admit I was warm and cozy, in front of my TV.
