I really enjoy (Seattle-based) Tyler Tang’s films and want to do what I can to help promote him.
So, here’s his most recent video. Check him out, give him a follow, and share.

Seattle Snow 2021
Its been quite the snow filled few days here just north of Seattle. The whole region got a good dumping, and yesterday stayed below freezing. It’s supposed to warm up and start raining overnight. Thus, I expect most of the snow will melt away tomorrow and Tuesday. I did grab a few good photos, though.
Killer Photographer & Videographer: Tyler Tang
I’ve been enjoying the video work of Tyler Tang. I met him in late 2019 (though I’m not sure he would remember me), and thought highly of him at that point. Nice to see his work is growing.
He posted this exploration of the U-District last week, and I think it’s pretty cool.
Views From The Road In Kirkland
The brutality of traffic: my journey home impacted. Made my way through Kirkland, though extremely slowly. The upside? These great photos taken from my car. Right off Lake Washington, the light felt perfect. The cold air, though, presented another challenge. One solved with rolled up windows, I suppose.

I love these reborn blossoms

Spent the Day Exploring The Edmonds Shore
Edmonds is one of my favorite spots in the region. I love exploring and am glad I thought to grab my camera and share with you.
November 18, 2018 – Exploring Edmonds
Photos From My Walk Around Lynnwood
This morning I took a walk through my neighborhood. One of my favorite things to do. Nice exercise and it helps me see what’s going on around town.
Here are a few photos from my Flickr page.
Today was a perfect day to be out and about in Edmonds
It was a fun day down in Edmonds by the Bay. Stunningly beautiful with plenty of sunshine: a perfect day to be outside, with the Saturday Farmer’s Market, the Edmonds Arts Festival and extreme low-tide.
I’ve been dealing, lately, with some foot pain, and my back’s been bugging me, which drug my attitude down some. But it’s hard to be too grumpy when it’s a beautiful, sunny day spent with family and friends.
Highlights:
- Grabbed groceries and lunch from the Edmonds Farmer’s Market. Today was the first day with the big/full market.
- Ran into the Bald Fish Guy at Edmonds’ Olympic Beach Visitor Station. I love watching all the folks checking out the touch tank! Oh, he told me there’s a new edition of his podcast, Aquacast,coming out soon. Make sure you check that out.
- Wandered along the beach from Olympic to Brackett’s Landing, checking out the tide-pools and marine life during our extreme low-tide. You can go tomorrow, too, if you missed today. Or if you just love this! Here’s a tide chart with details.
- I know it’s kinda silly, but I am very fond of the Edmonds Beach Temperature taker dude (No shirt? No shoes? No problem!). Bill Lindsay is a fascinating guy to talk with. Though I didn’t chat with him today, I have in the past.
- It’s the Edmonds Arts Festival. Wandered through checking out art, some of the student artists are friends with my son, which is fun. I delight in these person connections. We also had some ideas while exploring the photography exhibit, that we’re looking forward to exploring. It will be going on tomorrow as well.
It was lovely, and I am tired. I took plenty of photos, which I’ll upload tomorrow. Here is my favorite.
I was sitting by this bush with flowers the bees adored. After taking around a dozen photos with my Olympus, but the autofocus hated this. The breeze was bouncing the flowers and the bees were, well, being bees. I gave up on the good camera, pulled out my Samsung S7 and was able to grab this one. I did need to zoom in and crop a bit. A lot of work for this one.
A Sunday At Edmonds Beach
I slept poorly last night, so I took a brief nap after church (I ran media/video today). Our taekwondo school has a blackbelt class on Sunday afternoons. Lately, the act of spinning around for certain kicks has been very unpleasant. Dizziness sucks. I’ve never been a fan. As a small boy, I hated the little “merry-go-rounds” at playgrounds, as I find them nausea creators. It’s been with me my whole life. If anything, it’s gotten worse. Or my tolerance for discomfort has slipped. Not sure which. But the details are less important than the results. My desire to spend Sunday afternoon spinning around has waned.
While my wife was partaking in the blackbelt class, I opted to walk. My favorite place to meander is the Edmonds waterfront. When I lived down there, we’d walk every day. Sometimes twice a day, especially on weekends. North on Third, down Sunset, along the water from Brackett’s Landing to Marina Beach then back up the hill.
One of my desires in 2018: spend more time with photography. So, below are photos I took during my excursion.
I hope you enjoyed your Sunday, and are feeling refreshed and ready for Monday.
What was your favorite part?
Quite the day, weather-wise here in Edmonds & Lynnwood
Quite a combination of weather today near the Salish Sea.
I woke to a lovely morning snowfall.
By the time we needed to head to church, the snow was mostly gone. We had a few flurries through the late morning and afternoon, with nothing sticking.
My son’s youth group went to an Everett Silvertips game in the late afternoon. The sun was shining brightly, though quite cold. Oh, and a brisk, strong wind. So we went and walked along the Edmonds Waterfront; one of our favorite things. According to the weather station at the marina, it was 34 degrees with windchill dragging things down to 27. Brrrr!
Looking north from Brackett’s Landing, Mount Baker was glorious. I didn’t bring a decent camera with me, so you get these taken with my phone. Not too bad, but nowhere near capturing it’s awesomeness.
The wind was pretty relentless. Sea water spraying and wind howling through the boats’ rigging in the marina.
A very lovely afternoon along Puget Sound. Lovely….and cold. But we weren’t alone. Many good folks dared the frigidity to enjoy the sun. Even some windsurfers with their gear on the beach. Pretty sure hoping for a break in the strong winds (there was a small craft advisory for the Sound).
How was your Sunday? Hope it was grand.
