This is the Tacoma Narrows bridge in Tacoma, Washington as seen from a train. I caught this shot on a recent trip to Seattle and thought it was pretty spectacular. “Galloping Gertie” as it’s been called before, is one of the world’s most famous bridge videos.

Photo of the Day – Reflecting Through The Trees
From a trip to Skamania Lodge in Stevenson, Washington. Walking along a nature trail, alongside a golf course, on a beautifully sunny day. Who could resist taking a photo like this?

I went for a little drive on my lunch break down Marine Drive, next to the Columbia River. I stopped because I noticed this vast storm brewing, I couldn’t help but notice the whole scene. The Glenn Jackson Bridge is in the distance, Washington on your right, Oregon on your left. Also, this is my…

I helped a friend move out of the “Seattle freeze” today. We went for lunch after packing the truck and I had the opportunity to check out the Seattle Transit Tunnel project. Fittingly, it’s today’s photo!
Photo of the Day – It’s Not Easy Being Green.
Went on an adventure today near Carson, Washington. We were in search of remote waterfalls; instead we found forest service roads and patches of car-deep snow. I did run across this great quiet stream shot, though.
Photo of the Day – Fire That’s Brimming With Stone
I’m out on a mini-vacation at Skamania Lodge in Stevenson, Washington. In the main part of their lobby they have this massive fireplace. I thought it was pretty cool.
Photo of the Day – Pike Place Market
Another Photo from Seattle this week! My trip to Seattle would not have been complete without a trip to Pike Place Market. I love just about everything about Seattle; every time I walk though Pike place, I have a sudden urge to yell, “FRESH FISH!” in a deep surly voice. 🙂
