When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie
(That's amore). In August 2017, wildfires in British Columbia produced enough smoke to cover most of western Washington. With little wind coming from the sea to disperse it, all of Seattle was choked in a thick, unpleasant haze for several weeks. The smoky air caused the full moon of 7 August to appear red. This picture was adjusted for contrast, but the colour was not changed. -

A remnant of the prehistoric Missoula Floods in Central Washington, this lake has layers of water that do not intermix and a high mineral content. The water was thought to have curative powers and many spas were erected nearby in the 19th and 20th centuries. -

My Dinner with Bruce
Bruce Lee's table at Tai Tung restaurant, Seattle. After he became famous he would always sit at this table in a secluded corner of the restaurant, near the bathrooms. There was a curtain that could be drawn for privacy. After his death in 1973 the table was decorated with photos, posters, and a cardboard cutout of Lee, in his memory. -
