Espresso Vivace, Afternoon

Espresso Vivace, Afternoon. Seattle, Washington. January 1, 2008. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell.

This local espresso shop is located in Seattle near Broadway in an area where my son works. Hint: They make the best cappuccino I’ve ever had. The place was hopping on this New Years Day afternoon, since quite a few people were apparently getting a rather late start on their day. (Unfortunately, this particular location may be in the path of some new Seattle transit construction.)

Windows and Metal Wall, Seattle

February 3, 2008 G Dan Mitchell Leave a comment

“Metal Wall and Windows #1, Seattle” — Metal wall and windows – Seattle Scuplture Park.

I was intrigued by the windows and by the reflections in the patterned, textured metal walls of this building at the Seattle Sculpture Park.

(The following text was not part of the original post.) The subject of this older (2008) photograph is the outer walls and windows of a building at the Seattle Sculpture Park. But the actual building itself is hardly the true subject — the image is more about the abstract qualities of color, line, light, reflections, and texture. I wonder if a person passing this “thing” would even recognize it a the source of this photograph.
