Where in Seattle? Is it on private property or is it in a park?

Japanese Garden, and it is a LOT smaller than one would expect. When/if it changes, there's a line of photographers and only 15min each to shoot it.

It's also on postcards and magazines and such all over the place. One of the most photographed trees

Different tree.

They are just normal mature dissectums.

Japanese maples are everywhere in the pnw, or at least the Puget sound region. There are countless varieties of them but you can usually identify them by the shape of their leaves.

I’ve seen the Angel Oak a lot, but this is the first time I’ve seen this maple.

Yeah, I tend to think that’s the tree this person is referring to rather than this one.

Just got stuck in traffic near there. Last sunny day of the year I suppose.

This is not the one in Portland that many think it is. Yes it is a Kubota Garden and no there is not a constant line of photographers there. Depends on the day and time and the weather. Beautiful spot
