Could have had a better bit of clouds and color, but I am happy with it.

Paul you certainly should be happy with it...the second that is. beautifully composed and photographed. The only thing that I find distracting is the neon blue bridge at the far right which is a great pity because the lead in of the roads is excellent.

I would agree about the bridge....although it is actually our Football Stadium and many in Seattle would be pleased to be a little distracted by it.

Excellent shots, Paul. A really nice composition, and for a city-scape it must be one of the best spots. I just looked up your Sony camera - it has 24MP on an APS-C sensor. That seems a lot! But the image quality looks good. www.ephotozine.com/article/sony-alpha-slt-a77v-digital-slr-review-18347

That is one of the most complete reviews I have seen. I certainly do enjoy the camera, 0 complaints.

Yes Chris, I have. A little over a year ago. They have since built a fence directly in my shooting path.

Makes things a bit difficult and I lost part of the road at the bottom. Still is the very best spot if you want to include trails and use the road as a leading line.

I wanted to do this one in the snow last year but the fog was so thick I could not see the city.
