 Thanks all for the nice comments :) This is indeed Westpoint in Seattle's Discovery Park. The colors are not as embellished as some might think as it really was quite a sunset at the end of a week of failed shoots in lousy weather. I went to dinner soaking wet after taking this because the best angle meant standing in the water :P

Front page without a doubt. The negative thing I can see is what seems to be a slightly wonky horizon which I always personally find distracting. Other than that, a near perfect image.
