Congrats to Arnie and other winners - great selection of winners Walter !! Neat topic.

Thank you Walter and thanks to everyone who entered as well. I shot this photo at first light on a chilly winter morning. The light is a combination of some interior lights and the first rays of sunrise on the top of the Space Needle. There was no one else around so I was able to take my time composing the photo. I will post a new competition just as soon as I can think of a reasonable theme.

Actually the third place should be noted as Jarek M, obviously a 'copy and paste' mistake.
Thanks for awarding the photo.
