Summer ‘09 in Pics vol. 9
Fireworks at Gas Works Park
This weekend I traveled to Seattle to visit some Rice friends who are interning/working there. We went to Gas Works Park to watch the fireworks show over Lake Union. It was extremely crowded, with thousands of people carpeting the grass for acres. We managed to get right to the water, and I set up my tripod directly in front of the fireworks barge (although there were some unfortunate bushes right in front of me). A lot of these pictures were taken with my friend Kevin’s Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3.
Some remains of the coal gasification plant that used to be here.
Yeah, there were a few people around...
Somehow the people in the photo had really interesting expressions on their faces. Kevin took this one.
Lake Union was crowded with all manner of boats.
OK, found my spot.
The west bank of Lake Union.
Getting darker.
The Seattle skyline, just before the fireworks started.
These things were weird.
From the finale.
The smoke from the show.

Awesome man. Some great shots.. why didn’t you use your new Canon?
Looks like the show was much better than Farmingtons.
I don’t have my new camera in from Amazon yet…should be here this week though.
