First Saturday regatta. Sailboats all over Elliot Bay.

WA state ferry trying to race the USS Nimitz this morning. Only one winner in this race.

Old one.

Thank you. Moon has been beautiful the last several nights.

Early moon rise over Seattle.

And they are able to do instantaneous real time reporting like when the photo was taken?

You are kidding right? That would require local news reporters. Something that no longer exists.

Guessing headed to shipyard.

The sad state of our WA state ferry system. Going to be a long journey to Seattle today. Another definition of hybrid ferry propulsion. 🤷

Thank you. My retirement seems to be a way to chronicle the play of light across the Puget Sound. Love watching the grays transform to pinks and oranges.

Seattle waterfront as the marine layer forms and waits for the warming sun to send it away.

Moon over Seattle.

Nice wind for sailboat racing today on Puget Sound.

A brief glimpse of fire time on the Seattle waterfront.

Sunset pinks.

Staring contest with a deer. I am easily entertained late in the day.

So beautiful. Lovely capture of colors we don’t see here.

Thanks. I love the display of colors on the winter. I love the thousands of shades of gray that frolic in the #PNW

Thanks. We love seeing the navy ships go by. I love looking up the numbers of the aircraft carriers as they traverse the sound. Thanks for your service.

I does kind if. Thanks for the insight. I was just mesmerized by the play of light as the rain/hail storm moved up the sound.

We only see reflections if the sunset. But it was so weird to see reflections while storm raging. First I remember in the 25 years we’ve lived on the island.

Snow missed us. Hope you get some.

Really crazy weather today in the #PNW. It is hailing here on Bainbridge Island and there is a “fire time” sunset reflection off the sky scrapers in Seattle.

Pick your weather today on the Puget Sound. #PNW. See if you can find the rainbow.

Fascinating patterns of light with a faint rainbow as rain showers head to Seattle.

I am assuming that Colbert will now invite a right wing nut politician to see if the fascist FCC and Trump controlled CBS do the same thing.

Thanks. Most every day is a joy to see if and when colors will show. On the normal gray days I try and capture the 100s of shades of gray.

Sometimes the pre sunrise colors struggle to overcome the rain clouds. Even if only for a few moments I appreciate the colors breaking through the unending gray rainy days. #PNW
