Port Olimpic

Taken on the long promenade running along the beach. I thought the whale was a most interesting decoration, and the tall building in the background had water reflections in its windows. We couldn't see how it could be the ocean since that was to my right, but finally found that there was a large fountain in front of it. The windows sloped outwards and the reflections changed depending on where you were standing.

Nice capture of this Frank Gehry sculpture, Helen.

Striking composition and the reflection on the golden whale is fantastic, Helen. The red Mapfre have added a touch of colors to this image. BV

This looks more like Gehry than Gaudi. I like those giant cattails(?) on the right. V

Can clearly see the water reflections in the large windows, and the wale deco is really unique. Fine shot on the promenade. V

This opening of the town to the sea was a good improvement in 1992....V.
