Sometimes, a shot that you take just shouts at you when you examine your work later. A few weeks ago, I experienced this when I was trying to take a picture of the Cascades from a Lake Forest Park street, came home and found a picture of a dog craning his head out of the window of a passing car, ears flying. I never even saw the dog went I took the picture, it was just a car in the way.
Husky Football Stadium at the University of Washington is photographed regularly. Yesterday, I attended the softball game and then dinked around the waterfront area looking for a letterbox. Turned and took this shot on my way back. The north seating structure contrasts with the distinctively turbulent spring Seattle sky. The straight sharp angles nearly in monochrome create movement and substance. The room slopes off to the left nearly out of sight while the clouds bustle their way to the right along with the sharp projectile of the inside roof.
This shot came straight out of the camera. Any fooling in Photoshop seemed to diminish it (I only know a very few tricks), just a very small amount of cropping.
