Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
Farm with a View, Pt. Williams Road
I think I need a bumpersticker that says, “I Brake for Drama” because this scene had me applying the brakes way before I reached the farm in the foreground; our cloud coverage that day was so spectacular that even the mountains paled in comparison.
And as you can see, the Blue Hole, that Sequim is so noted for, was poking its way through, reminding us that although rain maybe forthcoming, it won’t be long before we’re back to sunshine and pretty blue skies.
What better way to start a new week than with a rainbow!
Somehow rainbows seem to signal new beginnings and although I captured this one several years ago, I think it’s rather appropriate now. It signals a fresh start not only for the new week, but a new year, and a new focus.
Although not always picturesque or pretty, the beach at 3 Crabs Road and the Nearshore and Estuarine Restoration Project are the biggest draw for me.
Here I’ve photographed a variety of shorebirds, raptors (Northern Harriers, eagles, herons, etc.) and delighted in the forces of nature as they transform the area into a glow of color to delight the eyes.
