An end of the work day stream of traffic flows under the Washington Convention and Trade Center's goliath clear barrel arch that covers Pike Street for a full block. It has redefined the space for seven years now and unifies the two sides of the street. I notice some lovely spangles adorning the arch's interior right now.
This photo reminds me of the song "Silver Bell." I remember visiting Seattle one year during the holidays. We had lattes to keep our hands warm, as we strolled along admiring the shop windows, singing "Silver Bells." Seattle is so beautiful during the holidays.:)

ReplyDeleteHi Kim, this is a lovely light spectacular. It makes me think of how behind I am...every year I feel the holiday season creeps up on me and is there before I'm ready. Thanks for thinking my photo looked like Sunset magazine! :)
