While making the movie Star War:
The Empire Strikes Back, George Lucas was inspired by the cranes in
Seattle. The "tanks" used by the Empire were actually modeled after the
Seattle terminal cranes. |

Notes
|
Space Needle, the landmark
of Seattle, is by no means a "needle." (Why isn't it named "Space
Tower" like CN Tower in Toronto?) A needle should not be huge
and spacious, and so I took these two photos to express the "essence"
of a needle. |

Notes
|
The photos at the top and on the
right hand side were parts of two airplanes. Pictures of airplanes are
supposed to depict a sense of grandness, but on some occasions I like
"micro-views." |
