Duwamish Reflection

On By Fred KingIn Blue Sky, buildings, Nikon D7000, reflection, river, SeattleLeave a comment

There has been a layer of fog over Seattle for days. I thought I should post something to  remind me of what blue sky looks like. The Duwamish River at high tide is nearly glassy in appearance. The building reflected is a Boeing property, one of few remaining in this section of Seattle known in Boeing-speak as Plant II. Although I am retired from Boeing I have no idea just what takes place in this building. In my day there were some secure sites within Plant II, but I think most of that was in relation to work Boeing did on the stealth aircraft in the 1990’s.DSC_2895-001

Leaves and Lichen

Another set of images from Lincoln Park. So many of the trees are now turning colors it has kept me busy this Fall. This is the time of year I am usually in Brooklyn/NY visiting with our son and daughter in law, wandering around the Five Boroughs of NYC with my camera in hand. DSC_2871-001 DSC_2874-001 DSC_2876-001

Fall while Driving

Probably something I should not have done, camera in hand randomly ( and mostly blindly) shooting, while I was driving last week. I did my best to edit out parts of the car, but as you can see, there is only so much cropping that can be done and still have some sort of subject left.DSC_2901-001 DSC_2902-001 DSC_2904-001 DSC_2905-001

Crossings

First two bridges span the Cedar River ( Renton) and the third is over the Green River (Kent). Bridges and train trestles seem to fascinate me. I should dig through my archives and do a monster bridge posting! :-). Lots of rust and creosote!DSC_2676-001DSC_2724-001 DSC_2776-001

The new North Span of the 14th St. Bridge (South Park) is in place, vertically. The new bridge is coming along. Other images of working vessels of one type or another. Barges are loaded with just about anything you can imagine, trucks, cars, boats containers, etc and take the cargo north to Juneau, AK.

Fall Colors

Taken at Lincoln Park, near our home, in West Seattle. I found one tree that kept me busy shooting for quite a few minutes. It’s amazing the range of colors visible on just one tree. The process of decay is in stages that I find fascinating, but I am sure there is a rational, scientific explanation. I prefer the mysterious 🙂.
