Seattle Trips

Hello! Here are the images from a couple trips that I've made to Seattle parks this summer.

Hazy Skies

A few days ago, I thought our smoky skies in the Seattle area might present an interesting photographic opportunity. I headed to Magnuson Park, hoping for a nice red sunrise. I added my best images here in chronological order, showing the sunrise's progression. In some cases, the camera gave the sun itself a more yellowish color than was actually present in person. That will be something to experiment with when I go to process the RAW files.









Discovery Park Fireweed

In July, I headed to Discovery Park to photograph the fireweed. My images from this trip are similar compositionally to images I've taken in other years, but I think I was able to manage better lighting and image quality this time around. They'll still take some time to process, as images always seem to when they involve clear skies.
