Thanks so much! The waterline sure helped with keeping my horizon line straight
I love'd this view at night but didn't have room to bring my tripod so no luck

This is fabulous. Its a great skyline & you did it justice. I include a link to my visual 'tourguide' description from a boat, featuring the Space Needle & Mt Rainer. Not skilled, just fun. Cheers

I'm from the Pacific Northwest, and have spent a lot of life in and around Seattle. So, yes, "home" seems like the right word. There's even a village on Bainbridge Island that the locals still call "Winslow" so you can imagine I really feel at home. Here's a website with the info: [link]

Your own town cool! My maiden name is Tustin so we've always felt like Tustin down in Orange county is "ours"

I'll save Tustin for you, and when you visit Winslow Hardware on Bainbridge Island, you can tell them hello from the real owner of the name.

LOL! Sadly I don't want Tustin - it used to be a pretty part of the state but way too much urban sprawl now!!

Didn't make it to Bainbridge this trip, but I have when I was much younger - another beautiful island

I hope you get another chance. If so, tell the place hello from me. (And I'll skip Tustin.)
