The Complete Seattle in Pictures July 19, 2000
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Having grown up in Seattle, describing it to strangers is very challenging. Seattle is a mix and dichotomy of cultures and styles. One week may have a festival honoring Scandinavians and the next a Jewish festival, the next celebrating a Chinese New Year or a festival where the goal is to eat as much as you can without throwing up. The architecture changes from block to block, the anarchy creating a unique and unified landscape that is distinctly Seattle. It is a place of technology, mystisism and ecology, surrounded by water on all sides and set near the intersection of two major mountain ranges, just below the magnificent Mt. Rainier.Capturing all that makes Seattle special and unique has been a challenge for many photographers and no one has done it with the style and class of Charles Krebs in this wonderful portrait of Seattle. He captures the visual distinctions, the ethnic variety, the length and breath of all that is Seattle. This is a must take home souvenieur for everyone who visits the city, and a great insight book for those wishing to visit. This book has been given to sister cities and international visiting vips for years and continues to be the best visual representation of the city. Truly the best by a fantastic artist.
