It was a dark and stormy July night in Seattle yesterday until, I noticed, just when Mike Behe, author of Darwin Devolves, was scheduled to speak at Seattle Center’s McCaw Hall. Then the rain lifted and the clouds began to part. Here are excellent photos of the wonderful and celebratory evening, from photographer Nathan Jacobson:

Michael Behe and John West engage in a Q&A, always the best part, with a packed house.

“Dr. Behe, will you please sign my copy of Darwin Devolves for me?”

The clouds part and the moon is visible over the Space Needle.
