Landscapes

The silence before the storm is deafening, and the mind is free to roam around.

A seascape at sunset

A fine line appears, as if drawn in the snow by the sun and the wind.

The only choice is to head west with the wind.

A sand storm is approaching fast.

Splendor and awe - amongst the mythical peaks of the Enchantments, Washington State.

Coffee is better enjoyed with a view.

The valley below the clouds is just waking up, while we enjoy fresh tracks and endless views up here.

A hiker and his best friend as they reach the very best view spot.

There, where ice and rock rule the landscape, humans are but an insignificant tiny speck of flesh.

She is my friend, and she is free.

Climbing with unflinching determination, one step at a time.

Navigating the snow fields of Mount Rainier on a beautiful sunny winter day.

Mount Rainier, from the cozy cockpit of captain Dale's airplane.

A view from the other side.

A dance of white petals.

Interstate 90, as it was in the fine year of 2015.

This is the place where the sea meets the sky in an explosion of purple and gold.

It's right there; behind the vail of sky and across the shine of water.

A late summer evening at Shi-Shi Beach, Olympic Peninsula, WA.

Big and small, life fits us all under the same ol' bridge.

On the other side is where the sun cannot reach.

The sands of time forever lay the valley of shadows.

The road carves its way through this beautifully wild and wet forest of the Olympic Peninsula.

City lights got together in harmony to wish us all the best this holiday season; a photo from the streets of Seattle.

She's on top of the hill, with nothing but boundless thoughts.
