They keep getting better and better!

At this time of year in the Pacific Northwest the sun sets far south of this view. But this scene, over mountains in the Olympic National Forest, really caught my eye.

Cropped and tuned up 20JUL25.

The U.S. Coast Guard was running exercises on Chambers Bay while fisher folks tried for ling cod on the reef and golfers golfed on the greens.

The gray boat speeding through the fishing boats (far left) towards the protected ferry was the "bad guy". As he approached the group the orange boat closest to him swerved to face him, they ran directly at each other and shots were fired. A very exciting sideshow for my hike!

One of several waterfalls you can walk behind at Silver Falls State Park. It was a wonderful morning shooting with @pnw.zack and @montyuf 🍂

It's a quiet warm summer morning in the less popular part of the Fraser Canyon and a lone Budd RDC refurbished by CN as a track inspection vehicle makes the climb up the Kelly Lake hill on the former BCR. With CN's recent plans to abandon the majority of the Squamish Sub and potentially all of the Lillooet sub with the closer of the West Fraser lumber mill in 100 Mile House on the horizon, it's likely this may be the last time an RDC polishes the rails of the Southern section of the BCRail.

New Dungeness Lighthouse, a window half way up the stairs to the Light.

We finally made it up to Lake Quinault. What a treat!

Dawn on the Pacific Coast of Vancouver Island.

An afternoon walk around the lake

Just a closer look at Mt Baker in Washington State.

Photo of the panoramic view of the Smith Rock State Park at the sunset time

We went for a walk after breakfast. The weather was OK at that time. But by the time I took this photo, it was rainy & windy again...

PNW

Lovely green, lush ferns, trees and moss make my heart happy!

The one thing I can say about the Pacific North West is that with a good sunset it becomes like another world.

Another dramatic morning at Chambers Bay. The view from the train bridge is incredible for 360 degrees, 365 days of the year! Storms, whales, seals and sea lions, boats and all kinds of birds are seen from here.

HFF!
