That perspective is bugging me. Where in Seattle can you get a view where the Queen Anne TV towers are in between the Space Needle and downtown like that? The way the towers are clustered suggests Capitol Hill but the Space Needle should still appear to their left, not right.... Or am I just not remembering things correctly? Someone help me out, please...

Ah, question answered simply by following the link and finding that the picture was taken in Belleview... so that's Lake Washington in the foreground, not Lake Union. Got it. Follow the links next time, genius...

I was thinking of things that are greater than the sum of their parts. Like cities and sunsets.

I've been wondering for a while - is that last name pronounced Mew-Deed or Moo-Day-Day?

Or Smith?

Every Christian who tries to convert me will eventually ask, "so if you don't believe in this then what's the purpose to life?" To which I reply, "the purpose of life is *to live*." Then they call me a Nihilist.

(meaning that life is also not reducible to a divine purpose or spiritual mission or even pure hedonism)

Matt from Denver shows his fucking idiocy yet again in not even recognizing Bellevue (not 'Belleview'). Stick with your stupid ass town shitface

Explains a lot:
When viewed from Belleview the only Seattle that exists are those who inhabitant its very topmost towers...

Born & raised in Seattle and the correct spelling of Bellevue is: "A-S-S-H-A-T"

@ 9, not recognizing a burb is a sign of divinity, not idiocy. Idiocy is better characterized by posting anonymously and getting butthurt because someone else didn't recognize your cookie-cutter burb.

You can't see the Queen Anne TV towers in the photograph; what you see in the photograph are the Capitol Hill TV towers. The Queen Anne TV towers are just to the right of the Space Needle, north, just outside the photograph. Believe it or not, there is a cluster of TV towers on not just one, but two inner-city Seattle hills bordering downtown! I always loved that feature about Seattle's skyline.
