From the Archives

On June 12, 2012 By Fred KingIn Elliott Bay, SeattleLeave a comment

I wanted to step back in time and dig something out of the archives that I don’t think I have used before. This is a moon-rise over Elliott Bay and south of Downtown Seattle area. I think this was taken with a small, point and shoot camera over 5 years ago.

Webbed feet are not a requirement for living in Seattle, but it sure helps.

A sheared-off telephone pole now used as an art project of sorts. Baby crying sign…?????

14th Street Bridge

I have been following the progress of the new 14th St. Bridge from the start of the demo. Thought I would post something fairly recent to mark the progress. I have a few images from this past week, but they are still on the chip in the camera.

My Niece’s Daughter

I rarely do portrait work of any kind. I just find it easier to work with inanimate objects. Having said that I thought I would share a photo I took a few years back. I have always thought that I had really captured a moment in time with this image of my niece’s daughter.

*A non-botanical term to describe the little feeler-like do-widgets in the center of the flower. ( Three hyphenations in one sentence- a new, personal best! 🙂 )

Like the extra-large hinges and pulls.

Modernity

An example of modern design. From the outside it seems to lack something for me. Where to start?

Yellows and Reds

On May 13, 2012 By Fred KingIn blossoms, Capitol Hill, Flowers, garden, SeattleLeave a comment

Yellows and reds seem to dominate the images today, on Mother’s Day. A nice gesture to a mother would be a good thing to consider today. My mom wanted a ride to the local hardware/garden store today so she was easy to please. She now has a new wine barrel to replace an old one to plant in. There was an unadvertised sale on this item. She would have jumped for joy, but I think her jumping days are behind her.
