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.
These shore pines are contorted by the near constant wind along the Pacific beaches of the Olympic National Park. Easy to tell which way the wind blows.
If you have nice weather in the winter, the beach is a great choice for a walk… if you can’t get to the mountains. At least that is my choice. This is Kalaloch … one of the Olympic National Park beaches.
This is looking north along the beach from the Kalaloch Lodge property in Olympic National Park. It’s a very popular spot, year round. I love to go and walk the beach and listen to the waves rolling in.
I don’t usually convert sunset photos to Black and White … since they are often photos that are “about” the colors. This one, however, had such interesting patterns and lines that I thought the color was distracting. (and, this isn’t likely to burn, either)
The location is Kalaloch on the beach of the Olympic National Park.
