The Space Needle is right next to the Chihuly Gardens. An example of engineering marvel.

Thank you Valery.
One of the more popular poses is to lean against the glass wall and picture taken. If taken correctly, you get the floating in the air effect, I am told. I was not lucky enough to capture that effect.

This is another popular spot.

Interesting, I hope that glass is strong as a vertigo sufferer it would be pretty hard to do that!

Barry, Indeed. Given the number of visitors, and no known "incidents", it is safe to say that glass is strong enough.

I am really enjoying the wide angle lens. Though I wish I got Min 17-35 f2.8, the Sigma 17-35f2.8-4 is no slouch either.
