Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
Washington beaches get huge amounts of logs on them, especially after storms or high tides. You must be very careful to NEVER be near a log that is near the surf. The surf tosses and rolls thousand pound logs like little tinker toys, and people routinely get pinned or crushed by them.
This was shot near Otter Rock. Next to this I shot hundreds of photos of Pelicans. But the hole in the wall finally pulled me away. I couldn’t get cany closer because the rocks were SOOOO SLIPPERY with that green algae you can see in the photo. After several falls I reminded myself I’m in my 60s and don’t recover as fast!
Boulton farms is just north of Quilcene on Hwy 101.
This whole area is filled with homesteaded farms. Last week it looked gorgeous with all the fall colors, so I just had to stop and take a picture.
This big boy was running straight at me just about 60 ft or so away. Fortunately, he was focused on the fish you can see in the water in front of him.
I’ll share him with you (often). He comes to the branch of this tree just outside my window almost daily. I know its a he, because males are smaller and his mate is usually flying with him or nearby.
Sunrise always dances light on different parts of the bay across from my house. Here Port Williams is lit up right at the entrance to the bay from the straight of Juan de Fuca.
This beautiful sunrise was over Mt Redoubt in Alaska. The last significant eruption was in 2009.
