I shot this on Tri-X film using a Contax G-2 camera. I was happy with the way detail showed up in the sky … the faint clouds. And the nearly full moon was a bonus.

Views from the New Jetty
The jetty at the entrance to the Point Wilson marina was recently replaced and offers some interesting views. The marina was closed for months while the jetty was replaced and any boat that was left in the marina was unable to leave for the duration. As a result, there are a number of empty slips now … although I expect they will be filled up by summer.
Views on a Winter Walk
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.
Sunset and Seagull
This gull was willing to stay still while I puttered with exposure settings. This is the Port Townsend waterfront looking south to the NE corner of the Olympic Mountains (well, with a bunch of clouds mixed in). For a wider angel view (without the gull), see below.
Weather Station Eagle
This bird was out fishing and I assume it had gotten wet … which was the reason for its looking a little scraggly. This weather station is at Marrowstone Point at Fort Flagler, southeast of Port Townsend.
