Pike Place Market/Downtown Seattle, WA

From 7/17/2013 to 8/2/2013, I took a road trip from the SF Bay Area to Vancouver, BC, Canada. Half of the trip was spent driving up the west coast. On my trip, I visited many famous places such as Seattle, Butchart Gardens, Mount Rainier, and much more. Obviously I got many coastal shots and many places that isn't as famous. The reason I am posting it now is because the high amount of photos I took equaled a high amount of processing time. I took a bit over 2000 photos on the trip. After stitching the panoramas, compositing the HDRs, and picking out photos from the repeats, I have a bit over 1000 photos to show you guys. The photos will be split into parts. I will link you to the previous and next parts on each post just like I did with my Death Valley National Park photos and my Yellowstone/Grand Teton National Park photos. Hope you enjoy viewing this chain of posts!

Today I have photos from Pike Place Market and Downtown Seattle, WA. Pike Place Market is a historic market place in Seattle that have operated for over 100 years now. Hope you enjoy viewing these photos.

Inside the market. This wasn't the main part of the market which is why there isn't a lot of people.

Long exposure from inside the market. A lot of people shopping there as it is a tourist destination.

Here is a photo from the outside market place. Not sure why there were cars driving down the busy market place with so many people walking around.

As I shot another photo of the tourists at the market place, this little girl turned to my camera and smiled while the rest of her family did not notice a photographer with a giant set up is about to take their shot.

A portrait shot of Downtown Seattle. How that street lamp lines up with that building was completely a coincidence. I didn't not notice that until I wrote this blog post. Photo shot at near where I shot the photo of the sign above.
