Points of Interest...

jezterr · 02-16-2009, 07:24 PM

thought it might be nice to put a list together of points of interest in any given area. so if you happen to know of a bunch of locations that are interesting to shoot at/from/etc, let's hear about them.

I think Sodo is a really fun place to shoot- there's the freewall, train tracks, etc

One of my contacts on Flickr did something kind of cool. He posted a map of all of his favorite places around Seattle to shoot from. HERES A LINK if you're interested.

This is pretty cool, are there groups on FLICKR for WA Photographers? I'm new to the Forum stuff.

Hi! I just found this site. I like it because it is local.

I like Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge.
Here are some shots I got when there the last three times in January 2010, Halfway down this link you will see the shots:

Sheesh, that sure is nice. But doesn't quite fit in the forum for "Washington". I think jezterr was looking for places around here

Those pictures were taken in WA

...and Nisqually Wildlife Refuge would be a "point of interest".

My mistake... sorry.

Tony S · 02-15-2010, 10:15 AM

Dang Jack... had me all confused trying to figure out where in Wa. that church was. lol

A place I can always find things to shoot is on the ferry from Pt Defiance to Vashon Island.

I've shot a lot of pictures in Point Defiance.

We used to like Nisqually NWR but since they took out the dike and made the walk really short we don't visit is very often. We went up to the Skagit Valley (Fir Island) yesterday and found 70 eagles along various roads starting in Silvana and going up to the Sammish Flats along the Edison Rd.

I'm going to have to check that out!

Photohog · 02-17-2010, 10:40 PM

Not to mention the falcons!

jack57 · 02-17-2010, 11:03 PM

Great shot Photohog! Can't wait to take a trip up there, maybe in two weeks when my wife has a weekend off.

I shot this in my backyard today... it ain't no Eagle or Hawk, but...
