Coho Reflection

Coho Reflection

The Coho is the ferry operated by the Blackball Ferry Line, running between Port Angeles and Victoria several times a day. I usually have gone up to Victoria several times per year … fewer now that my friend in Victoria moved to Nova Scotia. This was looking at the reflection of the bow in the water while we were loading in Port Angeles. I thought it made a nice abstract pattern.

Wet Fence Line

I was walking around Fort Flagler on Marrowstone Island (just SE of Port Townsend, WA) and it was awfully wet. The area is close to sea level, just off the beach, and at the base of a bluff. I think the water that pools up just sits on top of the brackish groundwater. I liked the reflections it provided.

Reflection 1

I worked some to get these photos of the reflections without having them show my reflection. They were both taken in downtown Port Townsend, WA.

I stood off to the side (just barely) and then did some correction to the perspective in LIghtroom. These were taken with my Nikon F100 on Kodak Tri-X. I have them developed and the lab does high resolution scans, which I then import to Lightroom (after amending the EXIF data to reflect the camera make, etc.).

(EXIF data is included in all digital images … and includes such things as the capture time and the camera settings … and can include all sorts of other stuff such as copyright info and contact information.)

Ducks on a Log on a Pond

I was out walking in a wooded area and past a small pond. I was quite a ways from the pond … it was sitting in the bottom of a glacial karst (a depression that was left behind when a block of ice was buried and later melted). I saw these two ducks sitting on a log and liked what I could see. After zooming in with a tight crop, I liked the reflections and ripples a lot.

Just down the trail from the pond, I saw these alder (below) and liked the contrast between them and the evergreens in the background.
