Can't get any of you to post, huh!!!
Well, I do like this morning's Google offering of "similar shots". This perspective has been offered by Google before but this one has even more images. The moods and seasons of Discovery Park. The last number of images were from the Pixel Fold. Others from the 3Pro and 6Pro.

Just don't stop posting yours. I always look forward to them. My guess is not many people have the P-fold which leaves you to post your gorgeous shots of Washington State.Can't get any of you to post, huh!!!

Hear, hear!
I too look forward to seeing 'em!
[insert inexplicably missing *nodding* emoticon]
And yes, not only . . should you better not think of stopping, but I'm quite sure that most of your fans here would like to see more!
[insert inexplicably missing *nodding* emo]
In fact, if I'm not mistaken, I think I saw where one of your fans was even trying to inspire you to partake in some additional photo-shoots!

Moreover, @tismydroid is right, your shots & images are gorgeous.

A less than spectacular day but as long as I can ride it is more than reasonable. Another Panorama from a slightly different vantage point. Compare and contrast as your leisure... 
It is suppose to rain much of the weekend and then some...

Are you a Seattleite in a former life?The clouds are still lovely.
It was warmer today even with the clouds. But we supposedly lose 10 or so degrees over the weekend.
The season ended with a terrific comedic performance of the Barber of Seville

I managed to severly overcook the cruciferous vegetables. What do you do with overcooked cruciferous vegetables? You make cruciferous ade, Well, quiche. Crustless.
Another low tide called. Clear day so Mt Rainier loomed large through that incredibly fortuitous gap in the terrain. As previously noted, the gap reveals not only Rainier, but the West Seattle Bridge and the huge cranes on Harbor Island.
A geoduck, pronounced gooey-duck - mascot of Evergreen State College!!! Great tasting sushi. Oh, I should note that is a live geoduck
Here's a screen grab of the whole thing!
Great Blue Heron in a great location.

Ahh, I can almost smell the salt water of Puget Sound! Wish I could join you!
That view of Mt. Rainier is incredible through that gap! Even though I've seen it in person tens of thousands of times...it never ceases to be incredibly amazing!
And even as I've lived in & around Seattle nearly my whole life, often driving the hour and a half to two hours SE up over all those foothills betwixt and between Rainier and our homes, (during which time I made well over a 100 trips up to the Crystal Mountain Resort, off Rainiers' NE side, or Sunrise, via Enumclaw and Greenwater), and Paradise via Puyallup and Eatonville and Elbe and Ashford... and even though the summit is slightly less than 60 miles from Seattle as the Crow flies... the towering massiveness of Rainier looks so close to Seattle!
Love the Great Blue Heron & Olympic Mountains images too!
Great pics & perspectives @FF22! Thanks so much for sharing them.

There's also a strategic gap while traveling east along I-90 at Issaquah that also reveals a view of Mt Rainier. Unfortunately, traveling at 60 mph makes it less likely to be captured. Thanks for the compliments.Ahh, I can almost smell the salt water of Puget Sound!

Of course, absolutely beautiful! I think the picture of the heron with Mt Rainier in background should be framed.
I have not printed any photos in years. Although some have appealed to me.
Thanks for the compliment. It feels good. As you might suspect I have about a dozen images of that bird and that mountain that I took. I was trying to get the alignment good while not spooking the Heron. I'd walk and stop, walk some more....

FWIW . . . In case anyone has $500 (or +) to throw at a photo printer . . . we were shopping for both a high quality photo printer & all-in-one, recently. Although we chose to just go with a decent (hopefully) Epson EcoTank all-in-one printer.
But if we had planned... on actually printing many photos, we'd have chosen the: 'Epson EcoTank Photo ET-8500 Wireless Color All-In-One Supertank' printer, due to it's (mostly) stellar reviews;
as it was on sale for $499 (typ $699); and the Canon 'imagePROGRAF PRO-300' was, and typ is $900.
*ouch*!
The 6 Best Photo Printers - Spring 2024: Reviews
The best printer for pictures we've tested is the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-300. This professional-grade model produces incredibly detailed, vibrant, and color-accurate pictures.

. . . (was $499 in early April 2024, so if interested - watch & wait for it to drop to $499 again)
. . . But don't buy from Amazon unless the unit is "Sold by: Amazon"!! Do not buy from a 3rd party seller on amazon!... As returns & warranty coverages are typically/can be nightmare experiences! And, (was $499 in early April 2024, so if interested - watch & wait for it to drop to $499 again)

Right; we had a small farm up on top of the Sammamish Plateau, with a very pretty little lake on it, full of fish, where we also had Geese, Ducks, Quail, Chickens, Turkeys, Horses, Sheep, Pigs, our Llewellin English Setters, and a couple cats. So Issaquah was our closest actual town.
We also used to fly Hang Gliders off Poo Poo Point on Tiger Mountain (up above the Issaquah Hobart road), in that 'strategic gap', (before Paragliding became popular), and where the views were truly spectacular!

Ah, yes use to hike to Poo Poo quite regularly. With the occasional hang gliders launching off the top. There was this one time.... Hmmm, what a odd place to set up a tent. It was a few switchbacks short of the lower landing summit. This bright, colorful tent was in the woods. Got to the lower landing, the one with the view of Mt Rainer. About half dozen first responders - engines ambulances, etc. Seems a tandem fly team lost it and crashed into the woods. Hence the colorful "tent" in the woods. He was a student and broke this thigh bone. She the instructor.
