Space Needle at Dawn from Kerry Park - The beggining of the last day of 2011
I have come back a couple of times but the sky at dawn has never been the same as back in 2008, so I haven't posted those shots. This one here came out decent, same framing than the one in 2008 but with the needle on the right hand opening of the sculpture. I also fired my camera strobe at the sculpture to bring more depth to it.

Peterson's Seattle
Just came back from a very intense weekend photo workshop with legend photographer Bryan Peterson. This was a first time ever experience for me doing something this intense on a topic that is non related to my core profession, and I have to say I have been focused on my core profession since I was like 15 years old, so we're talking 26 years here ... Even thought I feel exhausted right now, after somewhere around 30 hours of work between Friday and Sunday (very similar to spending a full weekend backpacking), I can say that this has been an amazing experience, and just like the smell of fresh morning coffee ... I can perceive the profound impact this will have in my future as a photographer and individual ...
So I want to specially thank Bryan Peterson for sharing such an amazing amount of insights, tips and techniques (with the "Zoom Twist", a.k.a. Bryan Perterson's effect as my personal favorite), I'm loving how all this is igniting my creativity juices ... also to my new friends photographers ... as you might imagine, spending 30 hours working closely with a dozen folks could be heaven or hell, depending on who you work with ... so I'm also grateful for sharing such a fun journey with such a personality-rich group of individuals and looking forward to stay connected in the future.
Now after this long intro, about this shot.
This is an all in-camera shot of Seattle from the Rizal bridge, 2 exposures in one frame single (no photoshop), 2nd exposure zooming out, again, here Bryan suggested multiple exposures as something I could do beyond your classical panoramic of long exposure on a leveled horizon from Rizal bridge ...Andres Caldera PhotographyRizal bridgeSeattleSeattleSMUGSitecityscape

Gasworks Park at Dusk - Landscape version
Just if there was any doubt that the sunsets in Seattle were among the most beautiful nature scenes in the planet, here are my 2 cents.
Just went visiting Gas Works Park on a sunday afternoon back in January and was welcomed with this unbeliavable color show, I swear I didn't apply saturation at all, no HDR, just cropped to remove some stuff at the bottom ... hand held as I didn't even bring my tripod this time around ...Andres Calderacityscapeseattlegasworks park

Dawn in Seattle
The Space Needle and the city of Seattle at dawn as seen from Kerry Park through the sculpture "Changing Form" by Doris Chase.
I took this shot in November 2008, with my 1st ever DSLR, a Canon Rebel XT and using my 70-300 consumer quality zoom. I edited it using ACR (which I was also using for the 1st time ever).
This shot was selected for the 1st ever Microsoft Employee Art Gallery, and for that ocasion I printed it 12x18 using my own HP B8850 (which is now defunct).
This photo basically motivated me to keep going ...

Interoperability or Coexistence in Seattle
Seattle better known as the Emerald City has proven that propietary technology can coexist with open source, here is an ordinary sample where a bridge to 520 peacefully coexists with the arboretum. I know coexistence is not the same as interoperability but you get the idea.
This shot is probably the one I like from this morning visit to the Arboretum with photogeek Ankur. We never been there before to shoot, didn't have much time and the sun never rised so I guess i'm looking forward to continued visits to achieve our goal of capturing the fall colors.
BTW - tried to come up with a natural looking HDR - what do you think?
