Water Ripples on the Inside Passage Building On the way back I

On the way back I stopped by Rocky Mountain Lake Park and walked near the lake

In the fall of 2009

With the warm temperatures the few days before this the accumulated snow did not amount to much but even so I grabbed my camera and headed out into the city

Being just a couple of hours from Reykjavik this is a popular place to visit but it is hard to tell that by using the field as a foreground element

I headed back towards the Mendenhall Glacier

Water Ripples on the Inside Passage Building On the way back IThe motion of the water can be mesmerizing. After a day of sailing in the Inside Passage I started to capture the ripples of the waves left behind as the Malaspina headed south towards Bellingham, Washington. Using a shallow depth of field (in the not so shallow waters), let me put the further ripples slightly out of focus as they fall out of the scene and once again flatten from the presence of the ship.
