Shortly after I took the sunrise photos on the previous post, the sky grayed up. Within an hour, there was a light drizzle. Almost no wind, light, but solid, overcast... it makes for some interesting scenery.
I departed out of Roche Harbor today. The flybridge on that boat is open... yep, you get wet when the precip falls. Fortunately, it was never heavy. The currents were ripping even more than yesterday, and you notice that more on this boat.
Today, I had time to shoot some landscapes. I really like the silhouettes of the islands in the background...
The wildlife viewing took us by Turn Point, one of my favorite scenes in the San Juans...
And from another angle...
In Boundary Pass, we passed by this schooner...
It almost looks like a pen & ink drawing, but there is no manipulation to this image; the flat light and lack of color in the image make it look like this. Not much wind, the boat was barely moving.
Through the Cactus Islands and out New Channel, the tide was on a full-on flood... it made for some interesting rips, currents, and eddies.
When I got back to the boat, this little face was waiting for me...
No dock walking today - we don't do that in the rain. But, little Izzy loves to sit in the enclosed cockpit and watch people and boats come and go.
Days off coming up, and the weather is supposed to be more of the same for the next few days.
