Puget Sound

Sky and water

I’m a fan of the beach at sunset…even on a chilly winter evening.

The sky and sea merge at the end of the day.

The creek is full

Every year the winter rains and high tides reform the tide flats near Shinglemill creek. Today was a low enough tide to walk the beach, without rain, but the creek is still full and running fast and deep. My little dogs were intimidated and couldn’t get across, but they kept trying.

Brief cloud break

This is the sky just before sunset (by sunset the clouds had closed in again) I wasn’t sure I’d get a sky photo this weekend since for much of the day the sky was on the ground (misty rain with low visibility). But the clouds cracked briefly.

One evening this past week we had another cloud break sunset:

I don’t shoot in black and white, but I took these photos on a walk yesterday planning to process them in Black and White for Hey Jude’s 2020 Photo Challenge #47: photograph nature in Black and White and experiment with high and low key effects.

I missed yesterday, posting everyday for a month is really hard for me. But yesterday I had an excuse: kind of a nice one. As I was getting the post ready my internet went down. After I rebooted it and started back my son called (he is in China) we had a two hour video chat! I was in bed before I remembered about posting. Oh, well.
