Nautical
Being the landlubber that I am, I have been slow to kindle my interest in nautical affairs in the Northwest. However, I have been drawn to boating images recently and thought to start showing a selection here. Initial images are from Japan, Port Townsend, Fidalgo Island, and up the coast into British Columbia. Locations and shooting notes are in the captions.
I would especially recommend the Seaview North Boatyard in Bellingham and the Center for Wooden Boats in Port Townsend to other photographers. Serious reconstruction work is done in both places by skilled boatmen, larger and smaller vessels respectively. Careful visitors are welcome, but ask for permission first.

Edison Boat Graveyard, West Bank
Rollei infrared film, 150mm lens, medium format camera. The first time I couldn't find this location, the second time the place was swarming with salmon fishermen, the third time the superstructure had collapsed but I was able to expose some film finally.
