Port Townsend, WA

It's been awhile since I've posted anything on the blog, and even longer since I've posted something that wasn't for the colors photo challenge. I'm taking a mini vacation in the Port Townsend, WA area for a couple days before I enjoy the usual visit to Bumbershoot over Labor Day weekend. I found a lot to photograph so far on the first day and had a chance to review them and felt like getting these favorites posted right away. The first photo is of the Point Wilson Lighthouse in Port Townsend right near Fort Worden, which is the second two photos. There are actually two buildings in the lighthouse photo, a small office/museum building in the front and the lighthouse behind it, but I liked the merged version. The Fort is where there filmed An Officer and a Gentleman. The last photo is taken from the beach outside the cottage I'm staying. This is right on Discovery Bay, just a couple miles outside of Port Townsend. The sky was beautiful and the bay so calm. I was the only person out there for awhile until this kayaker made his way along the coast and into my photo.

P.S. I think I found olive green at the Fort, and hope to catch up soon with my colors.

A Moment in Time Repeat: 1 PM

1 PM: birthday photos at the beach in Del Mar, with my feet in the water and a view of my favorite hallway... this will do.

A Moment in Time Repeat: 5AM and 6AM

To finish the pre-dawn hours of 5AM and 6 AM, I'm completing the four corners of Bay Station. Many of the intersections along Lincoln, a main thoroughfare across Alameda, have "station" names to match the cross street where there used to be streetcar station. My intersection is named Bay Station for Bay street. For 5AM I captured my third corner that contains a very popular shop that buys and sells collectible shoes. For 6AM I captured the fourth corner that houses a small local corner shop. There are many of these small shops down Lincoln avenue.
