These images of water all have very different moods to them. The one above is taken from Fort Worden in Port Townsend, the middle one is the Port Townsend waterfront and the bottom one is small tributary of the Dosewallips River (Phantom Creek), near the small town of Brinnon. They were all taken on Portra 400 using a Nikon F6.
I thought these photos were all interesting … even without the fact that they were all taken from about the same spot. (not on the same day) They are all taken from Marrowstone Island, which is just southeast of Port Townsend, WA. The body of water is Puget Sound. I like the variation in mood between these. I especially like the stormy weather shot just below that has the grass blowing into a blur.
I should add that these are all shot on film. The black and white on Tri-X and the color on Portra 400. The black and whites were shot using a Nikon F100 and the color using a Nikon F75.
I was downtown and walked out onto the public dock that gives a nice view of what’s going on with the weather and saw the sun hitting the ferry dock. Another day, but the same location, I saw this nice collection of bull kelp.
This is a photo that shows that I like about the town I live in now. Port Townsend has a nice lighthouse, a ferry terminal and a rich history of maritime industries. Plus great views and lovely weather. All things that I enjoy and look forward to now that we are getting into springtime. Yay Spring!!!!
After a day of hiking in the rain to Sol Duc Falls (see post here), we got back to Marrowstone Island just in time for a great view of a double rainbow. This was taken with the wide angle lens on my iPhone 16 Pro Max. The water is Puget Sound and Marrowstone is southeast of Port Townsend, Washington.
