Evening Adventure

Paddle boarder at sunset, Port Townsend, Washington.

6am Club

Early morning rowing club, Port Townsend, Washington. A quiet morning on the bay.

Dreams of Greenland

A fishing boat in the Faroe Islands, a map from a 1770 atlas. Since Viking times sailors have braved the North Atlantic. Even modern steel and diesel ships seem fragile against the sea.

Dreams of the Salish Sea

Every sailor must have a map in his head, to know where he is going and how to get there. Evening reflections at the marina in Port Townsend. Nautical chart of the San Juan Islands and Vancouver Island.

Wood Duck

Port Townsend, Wash. Reflections at sunset.

Liberty

No one is free until all are free. Schooner Suva at sunset. I added a wood grain vignette to give the feel of the Age of Sail.

Whidbey Sunrise

Coupeville, Washington. Mt Baker and reflections, and golden light. I used my long lens at 200mm to capture the detail on the mountains and the sailboats. I think this image works best with the boats slightly offset with the dark reflections of Mt Baker.

Schooner Suva at Sunrise

Coupeville, Whidbey Island, Washington. A monochrome edit, with wood grain vignette. Recalls the Age of Sail.

Salish Sea Sunrise

Anacortes, Washington. I took this photo from the overlook above Cap Sante marina. I used a 70-200 lens (at 200m) to capture the details of the small islands and the fishing boat. Taken just before sunrise.

Orcas Landing

Ferry landing at Orcas Island, Washington State. I was lucky to get the classic wooden boat in the photo. The Washington State Ferry runs several times a day from Anacortes to Orcas Island, and takes about 1 1/2 hours.
