    Not sure how that date was added but obviously it is incorrect ;-)

    Since it's flat and there are no buildings, I'm guessing this shot is near Leschi. "Yesler Way was Seattle's most famous cable car line. It connected Pioneer Square, near the Puget Sound waterfront, with high-lying residential districts and the Leschi recreational area near Lake Washington. Ferries operated from Leschi to Medina and Bellevue. When the line was built, the residential and recreational areas did not exist and the area was almost completely uninhabited. All of the Seattle cable railways were promoted by real estate developers." "The line was promoted by the Seattle Construction Company, with the help of the patent trust's Pacific Cable Construction Company. It was designed and built by Pacific Cable's J M Thompson. Because the company was insufficiently capitalized, the Construction Company operated it until the Lake Washington Cable Railroad purchased it in 1889."

    What a lovely photograph. That haze of light falling over the play board is amazing, as is his intent expression and the wonderful composition. Beautiful!
