Seattle Skyline

These are from my hotel room in Seattle, early Friday morning. Physically being on the West Coast while your body is on East Coast time really helps you capture the morning sun.

I had a lot of trouble getting the picture in sharp focus. I tried a lot of variations of bracing the camera against the metal railing and what not, but in the end I wound up laying prone on the concrete balcony with the camera sitting on the very edge (lens hanging over the lip).

These two photos also capture one of the few moments of sunlight I saw on my visit. In a few minutes it went right back to being cloudy, grey and rainy.
