Green Lake? More like Gray Lake.

Desperately need to go back to Kauai.

So, you may notice that this photo looks shockingly similar to a much older picture that I posted. Surprisingly, that is because I took it the same night. Lately I've been thinking I like this image more.

While the panoramic version of this scene (that I created oh so long ago) has very limited retouching involved, it was sewn together from two images and inherently been "Photoshopped" (are the quotes necessary if I actually used Photoshop?). This image however, does not have a single blip of retouching. The blurred lighting effects in the water were a result of a two second exposer. The lighting of the city and clouds were a result of reality. The color is true to how Seattle looked on that December night.

Proof positive that the best camera is the one you have with you. This was taken with my iPhone. It's the first picture taken with the handy device that I have posted on Flickr, usually the quality just isn't there, but this one made the cut.

PS - I know I should crop the tree and bushes out, I just don't have the heart.
