Visual Seattle
Maybe you are not from around these North Western parts and wonder what all these places that get mentioned in these
posts actually look like. Luckily there are many options for those of you to absorb the imagery of Seattle without
having to actually be here, or for those who are, without having to venture into that oh so cruel and unforgiving environment known as “outdoors”.
Photos
- More personal versions of Seattle here at www.flickr.com. Lots of photos from neighborhoods and out of the way, locals only, unusual places
that may even make a born-and-raised-er go “ooooooh cool”. Hmmm appears that some familiar names participate in this group which may be noticed by the observant.
- Maybe you need to send something more spiffy and uniquely Seattle to someone as a gift. Or a bribe. This place has suitable for framing, graft and corruption quality, much more formal pictures of Seattle. Mostly consists of the biggies – The Space Needle, Safeco Field, Gas Works, but also some of the more photogenic neighborhoods, like mine. Inexpensive not so much. But nice.
- The Seattle PI also has a bunch, pretty predictable, but also nice.
For the more real time, 29.97 fps (or in this case more like 15 fps) oriented amongst us:
- You can make yourself as dizzy as you want to by spinning around from the top of the Seattle Space Needle, right here.
- An entire page of camera feeds from around Seattle, including SEATAC, and the San Juan islands.
- Kirotv.com gives you a choice of 3 different views, some nice wide angle ones of the entire city.
- Looking North, here is one pointed at the Cascades.
And more functional:
- The Bainbridge Island Ferry Cam, so you can see the wait.
- Here is the City of Seattle’s page listing all the WDOT cameras as well as the ones the City manages. Yes, Seattle does get traffic. Lots and lots. See for yourself.
