I've just spent a LONG time reading back through this thread -- some really great stuff and some really funny stuff too.  Guess it's way past time for me to air some of my dirty laundry...so here's one from my archives.  This one was taken from a great distance with a poor quality 16X zoom on a typical misty/rainy day. I wanted to catch the raising of the bridge, but when I looked closer later at home I saw that the bridge revealed the Olympic Mountains behind; I guess since it looks like that around here so often I really hadn't noticed.  If only it were better focussed it might be a great shot, unfortunately what you see is what I got.  On none of the times I've been back to this spot have I seen the bridge up, cursed by the Photography God I guess.
