Springtime

There are times in these Islands that it just doesn’t get any better. Looking east across Griffin Bay, Dinner Island, San Juan Channel, Lopez Island and Mt Baker in the background.

I just love this time of the year

I just can’t help myself. Looking out my window in the morning and you see the color through the trees and I just have to grab my camera and hop over the back fence. This shot was taken around 5:45 am this morning.

Orcas Island

Turtleback seen across San Juan Channel from San Juan Island. Today was just one of those days, flat out gorgeous.

Morning Glory

There is just something about this time of the year with the rising and setting of the sun. Shot taken about 6:45 am.

Mt Baker

I looked out my window this morning and saw the red in the sky. Hopped over the back fence and walked to the clearing and took this shot. Photo taken from the University of Washington property on San Juan Island. You can see the research vessel at the bottom of the photo. Views across San Juan Channel, Shaw Island to Mt. Baker
