Why I took this image: In September Carolyn and I made the trip to the PSA Photo Festival. Before going to Portland, we flew to Oregon a week earlier and toured some on the Pacific Coast and then spent three days in Seattle. Of course, no trip to Seattle is complete without going to the Space Needle. I liked this viewpoint from below and the starburst that I was able to capture in my image.

I like the perspective too, but I feel like there's too much vegetation in the image. I would try cropping out a bunch of it on both sides of the image.   Posted: 01/12/2026 10:39:33
