I took this picture at the Seattle Mariners home opener today, 14 April 2009. Baseball is my favorite sport, and I haven't missed Opening Day in 4 years now. This is the Home Plate entrance to my favorite Seattle landmark...Safeco Field.

Just bought my first DSLR a few weeks ago, and this is my first attempt at a contest. I shot this with a full moon, and an amazing sky. Made a few minor adjustments such as crop and straighten. Hope you all enjoy!

This is an innovative design created by a local engineer. It is a complex of domed structures that primarily are used for tourist accommodation. From the website: These 'green' wooden dome structures are energy efficient, exceptionally strong and flexible (capable of carrying heavy snow-loads and withstanding earthquakes), durable (are expected to out last regular stick frame structures by as much as four times) and cost effective.
