Scenery Pictures of the San Juan Islands Washington
Here are some of my scenery pictures of the San Juan Islands Washington. There are no end of magnificent photo possibilities around the Islands, enough to keep anyone with a camera eternally content -- and busy. It's one of the things I truly love to do, and will always be gratifying.
I got my first camera when I was nine years old, and experimented by photographing anything and everything, including closeups of our family campfire. (Loved it!) My delight and enthusiasm has not faded, though these days I document whatever seems appealing: everything about these impressive Islands, to family vacations and birthdays, to a delicious new recipe I made. I use my camera to record whatever catches my attention, to document where I've been, and to show the beauty that is everywhere.
I will be adding and changing these photos periodically, with the season change or for no other reason than that I get a new image I love. You may notice some themes emerge, highlighting my current interests, like light over the water, or 'early morning' and 'late evening' images, times when the changing light creates a unique tone. If I've shown what I saw, you'll be able to imagine everything as though you had been there yourself. I hope you enjoy these San Juan Islands scenery pictures.
