VIEWFINDER: A Photo Gallery on Faces of Kirkland

Today we're celebrating six weeks of this site's existence with a look at the people we've seen around town.

Six weeks have flashed by since we launched this Kirkland Patch site, so we thought it was time to pause for a bit of visual reflection -- plus I need to catch my darned breath!

These weeks have been fast-paced, hectic, stressful and at times frustrating, but also very rewarding. We believe we have established already a very solid and in-depth base of information about this little city we call home, through dozens and dozens of stories, columns and photos.

We have met some fascinating people and explored some cool places. Here then is a little look back at some of them.

The links on the captions are not hyperlinks, unfortunately, but here in the text field we can make them so. Not all the photos relate directly to stories, but of those that do, if they pique your curiosity, here are the relevant links.
