Here,
at Seattle’s famous Pike Place Market,
I am standing at the bottom of a ramp which connects
the level below the main arcade
and the arcade itself.

It is an interesting perspective of the Market
one doesn’t see much in photographs
if at all.
: : ;
The Market has been located
on this steep hillside between the edge of downtown Seattle
and the waterfront below for more than 100 years.
Built in bits and pieces,
it is a labyrinth of hallways,
oddly shaped shops, entrances, exits,
stairs and ramps.

What an amazing perspective. Thank you for a new slant on things…
Your photographs are always so glossy and rich. Great image.. I like the deep perspective too.
Love your top shot pic.
I forgot that you use linky tools and, for some reason, all at once, I can no long link thru Linky Tools. So sorry.
Great perspective, Madge. The woman walking through the shot gives it the perfect touch.
Always great photography here ~ great composition, color and perspective!
Happy Weekend to you,
artmusedog and carol
Great shot and a new perspective. I didn’t realize it was built in built and pieces, really interesting.
Awesome shot.
Yay, I finally got linked. I can’t seem to use my thumbnails but can link in using Linky Tool Generic.
thanks for hosting
Wonderful perspective and composition.
A great foto and the view is a super perspective !
That’s a great perspective and wonderful description of the twists and turns of the shops there. One time we got lost in Seattle when we first moved to Washington. We wound up down by the Pike Place Market and started asking pedestrians if they could give us directions – and every one of them said – “I’m not from here, I’m a tourist”. We ended up driving around until we found an on-ramp for the freeway.
Cool shot, Madge!…:)JP
