1. That is just beautiful. I remember how blue the skies were when I was in Seattle (it actually wasn’t raining!) and how the countryside was.

   1. Meant to say. . . how PRETTY the countryside was.

      1. Linda — we were about a hundred miles further Northwest. Deception Pass State Park is on Whidbey Island

2. I love that second to last pic. And though I’m usually kind of ehhhh on eagles- WOW!!!!! What a photo!!

   1. Lisa — it really isn’t that good — don’t “big” it.

3. More than words can say… more than words can say… Beautiful mother nature. You are blessed with wonderful skills, Quilly.

   1. Rosidah — and I am blessed with wonderful things to photograph.

4. jealous

   1. Tilden — then my work here is done. 😉

5. Yea… I’m thinkin’ I would love the PNW too… at least 6 months out of the year.

   1. Melli — I keep telling you, here the winters aren’t too bad. Friday Harbor has never had weather like hit the east coast last winter!

6. Stunning, just stunning. The last photo should be entered in a bird magazine of some sort. That is spectacular. Are those snow capped mountains in the background of some of the photos, or just clouds? Obviously, I have never been to the PNW. America – – the beautiful!

   1. Church LAdy — the “fuzzy” white “line” across the top of the pic is clouds. Above it you will see snow topped mountains. Right click on the photo, open it in a new window, then click on “all sizes” and you will get the full-sized shot where you can clearly tell cloud from mountain.

7. I love it here as well, very beautiful place to call home. Your photos are gorgeous.

   1. Teresa — it is gorgeous here. What part of Canada do you live in? How close are you to Vancouver?

8. yup. You can never get enough of that! Beautiful Quilly:)

   1. Thank you, Lady.

9. Beautiful. With a touch of aromatherapy.

   (But what on God’s Green Earth was washed up on that shore? It looks like a Giant Squid).

   1. Karen – -it does look like a squid, doesn’t it? Actually, it is a tangle of Bull Kelp that has been beached and sun bleached.

10. Stunning. The PNW is one of my favorite places on earth, for just those reasons.

    1. Robin — the PNW dazzles, doesn’t it? I feel so blessed to live here.

11. I can imagine you love it, the scenery is breathtaking!

    1. Jientje — it is. And my camera can’t half do it justice.

12. You got me envious for sure :D!
    Love those trees on the Rock cliffs and the eagle shot is spectacular!
    Sigh,…. 🙂

    1. Nicole — if you biggie the eagle you will see plenty of room for improvement, but at this size it does look pretty darn good.

13. OH WOW – absolutely stunning photos Quilly, thanks for sharing. 🙂

14. Spectacular.

15. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for these! I’m not sure if they are enabling or curing any homesick feelings, but those photographs are a blessing!

16. You know I´m a fan as well! Reminds me of my home! I love the two colors of the ocean in that third last pic. Stunning!

17. How absolutely gorgeous!

18. breathtaking scenery! sigh…

19. So beautiful!

20. I recognize those views!

    I was born and raised on that island and have spent many, many hours all over those beaches, bridges, and rocks.
    Gorgeous pics, you had a great day for it.

21. Wow. DOUBLE Wow!
    I could stare at all those for hours. The second one might be my favourite — the boat seems placed just so, and the sky is just right… and I could picture myself on that boat and sailing out toward wonderful things (or motoring out I suppose, but…)

    Spectacular!!
