I took these pictures around Seattle randomly. I just happened to be in a certain spot, saw a beautiful shot and took it when I just happened to have my camera with me. None of these were planned, and at times, I had to hurriedly take the shot as it was not my main goal. I hope to show the beauty of my city and how we interact with it daily.

Ballard Locks

Ballard Locks

The locks connect inner Seattle to Puget Sound. A lot of care is place on protecting the salmon, who jump freely in these locks. I took these pictures the week after a dark skinned man was stopped and questioned for taking photos here. Many photographers, professoinal and amateur, made it a point to go the locks and take pictures over the next few weeks as a form of protest.

These sailboats are waiting for the Fremont Drawbridge to rise. Since it stops traffic, a certain number of boats have to build up before the bridge is raised.

Fulfilling all of billinonaire Paul Allen's wet dreams, the Experience Music Project Rock Museum (designed by Frank Gehry) now shares a space with the Science Fiction Museum. I personally think the space would make a better skateboard park.
