Setting Sun

As the evening progressed, we had the joy of watching the sun set, and seeing the view changing as it went along.

A little of Lake Washington shows as the last of the colour is draining from the sky.

Dusk settles over Seattle as seen from Newcastle Golf Club

Lights coming on as the day is winding down. Notice the bright patch on the right hand side of the image. That's the calm water of Lake Washington, while the darker grey area above is the rough surface as a weather front comes through. We watched as the front made its way down the lake. Then the first puff of wind, and calm, before the real front arrived. And it cooled off about 5 degrees C as the front came through.

A close up view of downtown Seattle, including the TV towers.
