Washington from the Air, June 28, 2010

This is really stretching the primary mission of this blog, but fits into the goal of showing scenic photography.  Photos from a recent flight from Georgia to Seattle, on the way home to Portland.

Cumulus clouds over Montana.

Mt Rainier and the White River.  

Downtown Seattle, with West Seattle (built on Duwamish Head) on the other side of Elliott Bay, Puget Sound proper in the distance, and Vashon and Bainbridge Islands in the Sound.  Part of the Olympic Peninsula is at the back edge of the photo.

Capitol Hill and Washington Park, Seattle. 

The University of Washington Campus.

Lake Washington, with the Evergreen Floating Bridge in foreground, and the I-90 bridge in the distance, leading to Mercer Island (which is a real nice bike ride).

Downtown Bellevue, which is a pretty big city in its own right.

Beacon Hill, more or less.  

Intersection of South 128th and South Des Moines Way, which might actually be part of the town of Tukwila.  Cascades in the background.  

Touchdown at SeaTac.

Thanks for flying the photographic skies.
