When a photographer sets up at the Viewpoint, it completely changes the space.

People are drawn to the edge, but most don't go beyond it.

When couples come to the Viewpoint, the two partners often photograph each other. Or just one photographs the other.

The park was unusually silent the evening it snowed, which was a few days ago now.

As I've mentioned, there's an almost constant stream of visitors to the Viewpoint. Day and night, they come from near and far.

I'm revisiting a photo I took towards the end of the summer, or in the fall, this year. I wanted to have a better look at the branches, so I played around with the settings.

Tonight, with all the wind and snow, is a very different night from last. But last night wasn't warm--not by a long shot.

Last night I took a couple shots of Jupiter and the moon. The sky was partly clouded over, so I don't know whether Jupiter will show up in the photos. I'm not sure when I took the photo below.

It can be difficult determining whether an image of the Viewpoint is level. There are many qualities of the local terrain that make it hard to discern where the horizon really is.

As the night goes on, many people come and go, especially on a Friday or a Saturday.

In the distance, Husky Stadium is almost always visible--unless there's heavy fog.

Moving forwards or backwards changes what you see, as most people realize.

At night the distribution of light and shadow on the trunk of the Sentinel is somewhat uneven--even unpredictable.

A grainier shot, but one that shows certain aspects of the scene that I may have missed in the shots in the previous posts. Documentation may require a variety of shots.

The edge is always thrown into stark relief at night.

Here you see the consequences of summer-long grass growth. It accumulates along the edge. While the man who mows the lawn takes the more or less flat areas down to a stubble, the dry grass at the edge, and beyond, remains.

It can be hard to decide which is the definitive image of a given subject, even when one is making a selection from amongst images taken within a period of a few seconds. The multiplicity of images and the unresolved decision as to which should represent the subject may, in fact, be the subject.
