May Photos

This was taken last week. The deer munch on the lawn, and then sit down to let it digest.

There are more than just fishing boats going by now. I've seen quite a few pleasure yachts and a few small cruise boats. Here's a sternwheeler cruise ship, Empress of the North, that went by today.

Petersburg Mountain is due SW from where I took this photo. During the summer the sun sets close to 90-degrees to the right, almost to the northwest. During the winter the sun sets off the left side of this photo. (As I'm writing this, a few minutes before actual sunset, the mist in the space between the foreground hill [that you see just on the right side] and Petersburg Mountain is glowing red.)

Here's looking out the other direction towards Frederick Sound. It was just an hour or so after high tide, so the current was fairly calm, and with no winds, the water was calm enough to reflect the clouds and mountains.
