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.)

Traveler, Seattle Airport. Seattle, Washington. January 4, 2008. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell.

I pass through the Seattle airport a few times each year, and I always like to spend some time in this part of the main terminal watching for photographic subjects. The main feature of this structure is a curving “wall of windows” that can create some very interesting lighting when conditions are just right.
