Backward Glance.
Another stern shot from the ferry travelling from Tsawwassen, (Vancouver), to Duke Point Terminal, (Nanaimo). This shot shows the stern of the ferry and the view out to the Salish Sea. Inset in this view is a ghosted image of an Orca. At one time the Salish Sea, (Gulf of Georgia), was a safe and plentiful habitat for the Orcas but with the ever-increasing man-made marine traffic and pressure on the Orcas' food resources it is no longer the safe Sea of Plenty. Lets hope, with the conservation efforts now underway that, in the future, the Orcas will not become just a ghostly image from the past but continue to be a thriving and vital part of the Salish Sea ecosystem .
