 This photo is of the Air Traffic Control Tower at Seattle International Airport. It is a rather magnificent building made of concrete and glass. The view from the cab is absolutely stunning.

It was a windy/rainy day and very cold. I bet I took 40 shots before I was able to get the flag to open up. (The blue flag was wrapped around the pole and never did untangle) From this angle it appears to be rising out of the rocks.

The rocks in the foreground make this tower look more menacing than an air traffic control tower. It's got a cool big brother feel and I mean that in a cool sort of way.
