This is just south of Port Townsend, WA on the Larry Scott Memorial (Rails to Trails). This trail is a section of a future hoped for route for hiking or riding across the US …

Recently was taking the Edmonds ferry over to Kingston (Washington) to get home after visiting friends in the Seattle area. One of those times when we just missed getting on a ferry and had to wait (only little over 1/2 hour). The advantage was that we were waiting on the dock instead of back in the holding area. This let me walk around, enjoy the pleasant evening and take some photos of the sunset. The individual that is silhouetted standing on the top of the ramp was a ferry worker and I was unable to access that spot, but they provided a nice human interest touch to the image.

I don’t know what the botanical names are for these algal growths… my degree was in geology and biology or botany weren’t required. But they make great patterns along the edge of this marshy area.
This was taken at Fort Flagler State Park on Marrowstone Island, SE of Port Townsend.
I like the vantage point that this location provides. It is looking almost straight down onto some trees that are growing on the top of the ‘dunes’ along this section of beach. An unusual viewpoint can help make a photo more interesting.
I have taken photos of the trees casting shadows on this building before, but this one shows nice branching that the others lacked. This is one of the building that is still in use on the grounds of Fort Worden State Park in Port Townsend.
