On February 18, Ben and I joined some fellow photographers in a Seattle Shootout, organized by a group of local wedding photographers, including Cory Paris, who shot our wedding. We had an hour and a half with an 85mm equivalent lens and had to stay in walking distance of Pike Place Market. We entered five of our favorites to be voted on for the best of the shootout. See Ben's shots here. You can view all the entries by going to Mat Hayward's website, entering the client proofing area, and entering the password "DWF" for 1st-round drop-outs and "DWF2" for 2nd round contenders.

My destination was the Belltown P-Patch community garden on the corner of Vine & Western.
