Radio towers on Queen Anne Hill, Seattle

Looking for one kind of photo, finding another instead
Yesterday evening I went to a spot in Seattle I had noticed while riding the bus, a place where the street overlooks some curved freeway off ramps and on ramps, which in turn lead the viewer to the Space Needle in the distance. It turns out I was unable to construct a compelling composition from this scene, but the radio towers on a hill on the other side of Lake Union caught my attention, and the resulting image has a bit of an abstract quality to it. The bright sunset sky put the towers and hilltop into stark silhouette, with the clouds looking as if someone might have sketched them in with a crayon.

Wonderful! Who would have thought these mundane antennae could be captured as a work of art?
