Newport Beach Sunrise 01.2009

I think I need a break posting all the Seattle Space Needle pictures. Today, I decided to post 3 nice sunrise pictures that my wife and I took at Newport Beach, California. I think this was about 4:30-5:30 in the morning.






We didn't actually come here to take pictures. The pictures were an afterthought. We lived only about 5 minutes from this beach. At least 5 minutes during this time of the day. Regular hours would make this ride maybe 15-20 minutes.

I love the way the sun comes up and lights up the sky in those unique colors.

I wish I had taken more pictures of all the sunrises we have enjoyed together. They give me a wonderful feeling inside.

Seattle Space Needle view pictures set 3

Just a continuation on my series of Space Needle pictures. These images are thumb nails of larger pictures. It does take a lot of time to upload them.

A view of the bay.

It's hard to believe all the walking we did in Seattle.

You can see Olympic Sculpture Park in this picture. We literally walked from there to here.

There is that famous globe on top of the Seattle P&I.

This image is directly below us.

We actually checked out these condos. I think they were called the Trio condos. The prices have dropped down since then.

Another picture of condos and Olympic Sculpture Park. Yes, I wish I could live here.

Looking at all these views of the building pictures makes me realize this is a great city to walk around and explore. The city seemed safe to walk around.

Amazing how many roof top gardens there are.

The last picture is just a good picture of all the buildings that already exist in Seattle.

Seattle Space Needle Video 1

This is a pretty cool video I shot with our canon camera. I always forget these digital cameras have the video option on them. Anyways, you can see the other tourists in the video. Enjoy!

Seattle Space Needle view pictures set 2

This is just a continuation post of more Seattle Space Needle pictures from the top. I think that cruise ship takes you up to Vancouver, Canada and possibly Alaska.

Look at all the condo buildings being built. More opportunity to buy and live there I guess.

Just another view of the high rises towards the downtown area.

I angled the camera down and the picture became a shade darker.

Hey, more condo buildings being built. Remember this was May of 2008.

I want to say this is towards the Queen Anne area, but not positively sure.

A look straight down of the area attractions.

Those are big art sculptures in red.

This is a news building with a helicopter and pad on top of the building.

That's the monorail and the Montreux building towards the left corner.

Don't forget these are all thumbnails and you can check out some great detail by clicking on the pictures. Thanks for stopping by. Cheers!

Going to the top of Seattle Space Needle

These are all miscellaneous pictures from the top of the Seattle Space Needle. Again, these are all thumbnail pictures, so if you click on the images you will see a large detailed digital photos. I really love these pictures.

Notice the amazing roof garden on that building. How wonderful would it be to live and relax there?

This is just a nice view of the bay. I never realized how much water traffic came through this area.

A close up of the beams and wire support.

This gives you a good idea of how the structure is at the top. It is wired all around and allows you to get great pictures of the entire city.

You can still see all the cranes and building activity going on.

I think this is a great view of downtown. Near the bottom right next to the monorail is the Montreux building that I blogged about where a condo sold for $100,000 there.

I have about 100 of these Seattle Space Needle photos and will post some more. Thanks for stopping by. Cheers!
