Four Towers

As promised yesterday, here is the view further south along the shore of the Westlake neighborhood and the east side of Queen Anne Hill. There are three prominant broadcast towers on the hill and I think you recognize the fourth tower on the left :-). The lighted outline of the houseboat/floating home used for the film Sleepless in Seattle is in the shot below to help you locate it in this shot. This shot is straight out of the camera with a 50mm 1.2 lens that seems to always catch awesome light and color for me.  Ooops, I mispoke, this was actually a 24-70mm lens.

Still For Sale

It's overcast here and showers predicted for tomorrow and Saturday's start of the long Labor Day weekend featuring Bumbershoot, Seattle's enormous 3 day music and arts festival at Seattle Center. People will wring as much fun out of these last few days of summer as they can, despite the weather. I'm showing you this photo of folks enjoying a sail on Lake Union because the mast top of this catamaran with rainbow colored sail is actually pointing directly at Seattle's most famous houseboat (beige in color). You still have a chance to clinch the deal and own this piece of movie lore, as it is still for sale for $2,500,000. Come on, you know you want that lake view! ;^)
