Seattle Sunsets

I found a few of these while I was digging through some past shots. My apartment on South Lake Union allows me a wonderful vantage point, not of the West, but of the colors in the east as the sun drops below the horizon.

The other two are from Alki beach in West Seattle. I'm working on macro insect shots this weekend and should have them up by Monday or Tuesday. Keep your fingers crossed.

I'm off to the Chai House in Ballard to read Dominic Streatfield's book on the history of Cocaine, titled simply, "Cocaine: an Unauthorized Biography". It's an easy read as he is a great story teller. Check it out if you get the chance.

Alki Beach Sunset and Birds!

Here are a few shots I took down at Alki beach a couple of days ago. The Heron didn't seem to mind me creeping up to about 15 feet away, although, a 400mm lens helps! I can't wait for the weather to get better so I can get some macro insects and flower shots!

In the meanwhile, I have ordered some exotic insects and am waiting for them to be delivered. I should have some macro shots very soon.
