Tacoma, Washington is the sister city to Seattle, the more well known city which lies to its north, also on Puget Sound.  With a population of about 200,000, Tacoma is a substantial city in its own right, and actually is the older of the two.  It continues to be an important rail and shipping hub, which goes back to the days of the late 19th century when it was picked as the western terminus of the Northern Pacific Railroad.  Check out Tacoma from a bird's eye perspective in this drone video.

Founded less than three decades ago, Amazon is amongst the 2-3 most valuable companies on the planet.  Its meteoric rise has been instrumental in propelling its hometown of Seattle, Washington into the ranks of the country's most prosperous cities.  Perhaps the most visible symbol of the company's presence is the Amazon Spheres, three globe-shaped domes located on the headquarters campus in the North Denny neighborhood.  See them from above in this drone video by CineFlight.

After Puget Sound, Lake Washington is the most prominent geographical feature of the Seattle-Tacoma Metropolitan Area.  With a surface area of almost 90 square km (just under 35 square mi.), it's the second largest lake in the state.  Since the construction of the Lake Washington Ship Canal in 1934, the lake has been connected directly to Puget Sound and thence to the Pacific Ocean.  You can check out the lake from a bird's eye perspective in this drone video by Loren_Anderson.

Here is an amazing aerial view of a large ship being towed into one of the USA's busiest ports.  The vessel is a containership operated by Evergreen Marine, a large Taiwanese shipping company which operates about 150 of these behemoths.  The ship is being towed into the Port of Tacoma, which lies south of Seattle on Washington's Puget Sound.  The ports of Tacoma and Seattle merged their operations in 2015 to form the Northwest Seaport Alliance, which is now the fourth-busiest container port in the United States.

For a first upload to AirVuz, brand-new contributor mykdol brings us this excellent drone video of Bellevue, Washington.  Bellevue lies on the eastern side of Lake Washington, opposite Seattle.  It was largely a rural area until the 1940's, when it became connected to Seattle via a floating bridge over the lake; a second bridge was added in the 1950's.  With a current population nearing 150k, it's the third-largest city in the Seattle-Tacoma Metropolitan Area, the 15th largest in the USA as of 2020.

Snow Day: Shot on EVO

It was a rare snow day in Seattle - the city gets a lot of rain, but not a ton of snow like in Maine or Minnesota - so the folks over at Autel Robotics decided to take their EVO drone out to play in the picturesque landscapes of Seattle's outlying areas, where the urban quickly transitions to rural. From steamy rivers, to snow-covered trees and frozen waterfalls, frosty landscapes and more, the EVO grabs the colors and negative space provided by the area’s rare snow storm.

The Tacoma Dome is one of the more recognizable landmarks in Seattle's "sister" city.  Opened in 1983, the arena is used for concerts, indoor soccer, American football, basketball, and hockey.  During the 1990's, the Dome was the home court of the Seattle Supersonics of the National Basketball Association while the Seattle Center Coliseum was being renovated.  Seen in this drone video by Yi Jun Luo, the Dome has a seating capacity which ranges up to about 21k for spectator games.

While Puget Sound is best known for its two main cities, Seattle and Tacoma, the body of water in western Washington is home to numerous towns.  Many of these smaller communities began as independent villages and fishing ports, but have been absorbed into the Seattle Tacoma Metropolitan Area.  Here's a drone video of one of these communities by contributor shkundas.  Poulsbo lies on an inlet in the western side of the sound, northwest of downtown Seattle.

Contributor cward360 created this awesome video of some orca's (aka killer whales) feeding in the waters of Puget Sound in Washington State, part of the USA's Pacific Northwest.  They were filmed in Henderson Bay, an inlet of the sound near Gig Harbor. If you look at a map of the area it's a wonder that these creatures can navigate the convoluted waterways in the area; just making it to the Tacoma Narrows Bridge near the southern end of the sound looks complicated enough and the waterways narrow even further from there!
