It almost looks like we are on a giant (flat) chest with Mt Rainier as one stony nipple and with the city being the other that has some how eroded into this frayed metal and glass thing. But maybe that's just the mezcal talking. Yes. I suppose that's it.

This composition, though cliche, is the best urban view in America. It makes our city look like heaven.

I would say the view of Mt. Hood through downtown Portland from Washington Park's Rose Test Garden is equally stunning.

Lovely pic. Does anyone remember when the air was clean enough that you could actually see Mt. Rainier?

I bet all the rich folks near Kerry Park are so bored of waking up w/ this as their morning pic.

@9 I've got the Space Needle/Olympics westward view and I never get bored with it.
