Great shot!
I was reveling in the mountains' beauty this morning as I rode the 8 down Denny (kept looking back over my shoulder) and then walked down Harvard to work. That view of Space Needle against clear, snowy mountains - so gorgeous.

RE: Great shot!
The mountains and Needle were out of a pop-up book this morning. I nearly fell off my bike when I caught my first glimpse.
