Thank you. Up here we are in the magic time of the year when we have late night, beautiful, clear sunsets over Puget Sound. It makes up for the long nights + gloom & doom we experience for much of the rest of the year.
Three from Sunset Ave. on the last day of July. As I take sunset shots from the same locations, it is always a challenge to keep the photos from looking alike.
Saturday's (8/3/13) afterset. All 5D Mk III + 17-35L zoom.
Looking north.
The house once again. Three baby seagulls are nesting on the roof with their mother perched on the chimney. My photos of them were poor, so I'll return to photograph them in better light.
A young woman braving the cold water after sunset.
One last shot of the small house. Someone thought I was a professional photographer shooting the house for an ad and asked if it were for vacant and up for rent. I should have asked them for a cash deposit.
It has been a while since I posted any sunset shots. Here are some from Sunset Ave. on Thursday, 9/5/13. These were all taken in regular mode (no HDR) with either the 7D + 17-35L zoom or the 5D Mk III + 100-400L zoom + 1.4L teleconverter.
The sun is setting much earlier and farther south along the Olympic Peninsula.
I was too late for Sunday's (9/8/13) sunset, but I went down to Sunset Ave. anyway to chat with friends. A crescent moon was setting over Puget Sound and the Olympic Mts, so I grabbed my camera out of the pickup and took what are essentially grab shots as I did not want to spend time setting up the tripod for time exposures.
I think the bright orb to the right of the moon is the planet Venus.
Look to the left of the ferry and you can just see the tip of the moon before it sets entirely behind the mountains.
Sunday (10-13) my aunt and uncle invited my son and me to their house for dinner. I took some photos of the sunset off their back deck. Compare the position of the sun with photos I took from their deck last summer.
Friday (10-18) my son and I finished photographing birds in Yost Park just in time to catch the sunset from the hillside on Walnut St. west of the park. It took clever composure and cropping to keep the myriad of #@*&%!! telephone and power lines out of the photos.
This is the highest peak in the Olympic Mountains visible from Edmonds.
