Another great one! I went to take pictures up at queen anne one day and got so confused as to what a giant green frog (it looked like a frog at least) was doing up on top of the space needle. Not to mention that it didn't make the skyline come out very well. Finally I know the truth!

Great pic, I like the way the sky is shaded behind the needle.

kinds soft and the background is kinda boring. Maybe a tighter crop around the alien

The photo is somewhat on the dark side. The “alien” is kind of hard to see. If you had a photo of a real alien it would be quite a shot, as it is this is not a photo I would expect to see in a newspaper.
