I always thought the Space Needle was right in the middle of downtown but the last picture makes it look like it's quite a ways away.

that last one is straight nasty! was seattle on that list of world's greatest skylines? if not, i say put it on there.

Chris : Yeah the Needle's in a whole seperate neighborhood, apart from downtown, called Queen Anne. Doesn't necessarily mean much considering you have to have a seperate neighborhood/area name every two blocks or so in Seattle. But it is apart from downtown, not sure how far as I'm a bad judge of distances, but you can easily walk from the needle to downtown.

colavitos ghost: Thanks! Yeah Seattle edged in at #15:

and since it was such a cool article, gonna link to it here:
Luigi Di Serio's skylines

hope I did all that right, thanks for the comments.

When I think of Mt. Rainier, I always see that shot....
And the skyline of downtown is right on also.
How did you know?

kadesh : the big pulsing third eye in my forehead. wait- which shot? the photo directly above your comment is someone else's, only the views from the harbor are mine.

i always picture rainier in relative isolation. and i picture downtown sort of how it's displayed in my post, from the harbor, because that's how i first saw it on the deck of the ferry.
