| You capture Beautiful Seattle so well. This is the only city in the US that makes me just stop and enjoy the view, and I'm more a country/nature woman. I lived there for 6 wonderful years and still love the sight of her. Thank you for sharing! |

| Stunning image. Technicals are spot on, but catching the right moment here with the light and the mountain being visable took some planning too. During my visit out there, I never once saw Mt. Rainier because of cloud cover :( Thanks for showing me what I missed! |

| As someone who lives in the Seattle area I have to say- this is one of the best (if not the best due to color) pictures of the city I have aver seen. It is nearly impossible to get a clear shot of the city and mountain at the same time, and this picture highlights them both perfectly. You should seriously sell this to some magazines- I'd love to buy a print of it myself. Let me know if you're selling! |

There is no such thing as a perfect shot but if there were this would be it!
I love the sky and Mt Ranier in the background and the lighting and the composition. Brilliant
A well deserved ribbon. |

It looks like you even captured some lenticular cloud formations near the mountain. Well done!
I forgot to mention that I really dislike the "sandwich" border. :(

Ohmygoodness! I don't know that I have ever seen a more beautiful photograph. The night time exposure is absolutely perfect -- but the shadowy, snowy Mt. Ranier in the sunset background. What a fine art masterpiece! Congratulations on the blue ribbon -- but seriously -- this should be printed and sold to Seattle lovers for biiiiiiig bucks!
Oh, and thanks for ammunition. I have been foaming at the mouth to upgrade to that 5D Mark II. I will show my husband this photo so he will understand why I need it too :) As IF I could get a shot like this anyway, but at least with that camera I could get closer :)
