I love images like this, Lucy. I've seen hundreds of images of the the needle. This is the first I've seen taken form the needle. #346138Lucy S. Durfee November 18, 2005
Thanks, Bob! It looks even better enlarged to 12x18. I have shots of the needle too, but nothing unique. I took this one night during the BetterPhoto summit in September. My first visit to Seattle - short but fun. I'd like to go again sometime next year and spend more time there. #2091102Gary Lange November 18, 2005
Nice Lucy!! Like Bob says, I don't remember seeing shots taken from inside. Well done! #2091119Lucy S. Durfee November 18, 2005
Thanks, Gary! It wasn't easy. The deck is not designed for photography! I used only two legs of my tripod placed behind the hand rail, and rested against the ledge. Then I had to position the lens between the cables going around the perimeter of the observation deck. I liked the reflections off the black triangle-shaped building and the light was nice just before sunset. The sunset was beautiful, too! #2091179Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
