Sunset Hill park is a great little park in Ballard overlooking Shilshole bay. The park has beautiful sweeping views of Shilshole marina and Bainbridge island.
The park faces west and is an awesome place for sunset shots. If you look carefully to your south you can see West point lighthouse in the distance. On a clear day you also see the Olympic Mountains across from Bainbridge island.
The best time to shoot from this location is when there are high clouds. It took me a few visits to get the sort of shot I was looking for. I've included two shots - a sunset shot over Shilshole marina and a close up of the marina. In winter the marina tends to be fully occupied and you can get some interesting close up shots to display the symmetry of the marina. Walk along the entire length of the park to choose the composition that's right for you. As always dress warmly as it can get pretty cold up here.
