Zoomed in ... National Geographic Venture I may have found my next adventure. |
November 7th 7:20 AM A most unusual overnight snow in the Olympic Mountains coated Mount Olympus but not the closer mountains. Mount Olympus - Washington |

November 6th 4:57 PM Just after sunset Mersk Cargo Vessel arriving in Port. In this photo I like the lights along the top edge of the hull. |

Postscript: This year, for the first time in 55 years, on November 22, I did not hear, see, or think anything about John F. Kennedy. Amazing!
Wow, so many gorgeous sky photos. The sun pillar is cool and I love the rainbow and sunset. Neat views of the ships, the National Geographic Venture is interesting. Wonderful post and lovely series of photos. Enjoy your day, have a great new week ahead!

You capture some dandy skyscapes
ReplyDeleteIt was the same for me about the date, John! In time, everything becomes a distant memory. Great pictures, as always. :-)
ReplyDeleteJohn, this is a most amazing set of photos.I'm glad I don't need to pick a favourite as that would be impossible.Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI really like your No. 8 sky shot that has the curling clouds and lots of color.
ReplyDeleteAhhh such an absorbing beauty you are surrounded by dear John!
ReplyDeletethank you so much for making my day with glory of your area!!!
That sunset is a beauty and the reflection in the window in number 2 is amazing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful rainbow and like you said rare to see one so wide. Great capture.
I love your second picture. So nice. Have a good week, John!
ReplyDeleteJohn,
ReplyDeleteIt is a shear delight to view your masterful photos - love the variety of ships and the scenery- the mountains are spectacular. About John.F.Kennedy...I remember well my Mother hearing the news of JFK over the radio in the morning and the tears flowed with the news that "The President of America has been shot and killed"... I remember well Mum saying: "He was such a good and great man"....I think the World changed then for worse and again later when John Lennon was shot- the World changed for us. Regards. KEV. ( Australia).
such wonderful pictures.
ReplyDeletehave a great day
Superb photos as ever youhave taken John, te sunsets and ships are the ones I love seeing. Thanks for the comment on my blog and about my name though I very nearly used Blue Hat but as there is a Childrens book called Bill Blue Hat I thought I'd leave it. Have a great weekend
