Grey Waterfront Fountain

Here's another grey-sky shot from our Seattle trip. This is Waterfront Fountain, in Waterfront Park, in Seattle. For some reason, the F-shape makes me think of Facebook, even though I'm one of the few people on the planet who doesn't use it. And yes, this was taken in the rain, as were many of my Seattle photos this spring.

This is in memory of Klaus Peter, one of the maintainers of the Skywatch Friday meme.

Solar Light Pattern

This post is dedicated to Klaus Peter, the founder of the awesome My World Tuesday meme, who recently passed from this world. Others are carrying on the meme. Events like this put things into perspective.

One night when I was taking some lightning photos I turned around and noticed the patterns cast by our solar light. I already had my camera and tripod ready, so I shot it and this is what I ended up with.

The tiny white spots are hot (bad) pixels on my old camera, and they're one reason I'd like to replace it. And that's a small part of My World this week.

Theatre of Dionysus

For Sunday Scans this week, here's the last of my photos from Greece in 1973. This time it's the Theatre of Dionysus. There's so much to see here I'd love to go back again, as an adult with a clue about photography and a decent camera. But I have to admit that I'd be nervous about all the unrest and strikes, and I'm not sure I'd lay out the large amount of money to travel there at this time.

Bellevue Botanic Garden Trail

Here are a couple more photos from the lovely (and free) Bellevue Botanic Garden, this time some very green shots from the trail. It's very rainy here!

Tree Sky

I liked this photo of aspen and pine trees from a recent hike near the Palmer Reservoirs, and thought it would be perfect for the Skywatch Friday meme, as well as this week's PicStory meme, with the theme of "Sky."

Portland's Burnside Bridge

I ended up with lots of bridge photos when I was in Portland, so here are some more for the Sunday Bridges meme. This time it's the downtown Burnside Bridge.

If you like bridges, I've got several more to post yet!

Stoa Of Eumenes

I have just a couple more photos from Greece and then we'll move on to another part of the world. This week it's the Stoa of Eumenes.
