Scenic Sunday

The Holleys host Scenic Sunday. Thanks a lot for hosting. From the Scenic Sunday blog comes this:

Scenic Sunday is a photo meme of the scenery. It can be landscapes, buildings, flowers, or anything you feel it’s a scenery photo. This meme will be held every Weekend. To join, just post your scenery shots on your blog and link back to Scenic Sunday. Please do visit each other and comment.”

Okay. I know this says Sunday and I’m posting it on Saturday but so does everyone else so that’s why it’s posted. I know I keep posting things from my Seattle trip but I can’t help it. The spectacular scenery up there is just amazing to me. This week I have decided to show you the sunset over Puget Sound from my Sister-In-Law and Brothers house, a truly amazing view of water going to Friday Harbor and the seagull’s following the ferry. If you look close and make the second to the last seagull picture big you can see some food that the kids tossed in the air for the seagulls. I hope you enjoy these.

Please click on the photos to enlarge. Mahalo.

Have a very happy Scenic Sunday everyone!

Hey, it’s only my opinion.

  1. Love your photos Thom but the second one (view from the ferry) is outstanding!

  2. Wow! splendid, the seagulls are lovely … Aloha!

    greetings from Davao City, Philippines.

  3. Beautiful shots. It really is very predictable to see seagulls following the ferries. I’m glad you enjoyed my world :0)

    • I should have known that as when we go out fishing they follow for a while as well. It is certainly beautiful up there I tell you :) Thank you my friend :)

  4. Birds are so much fun to try to photograph. You did great. All I ever get are bits and pieces as they are too fast for me.

  5. These photos are wonderful. I especially love the close up of the seagull following the ferry :)

  6. Love your photos, Thom! You did get some good ones while your were here and I’m so glad! The seagull shots are wonderful. Hope you have a great weekend!

  7. Seagulls following ferry, or your lens following seagulls, hehehehe! I am back from vacation but too tired to blog, too much catching up to do. I will see you around. We went to Death Valley and like you will be posting photos about our trip.

    Happy Red Hearts Day!

  8. Beautiful! but i still think hawaiian sunsets are the prettiest =)

  9. I would love to visit Seattle some day. Probably during a summer, as I can’t bear the cold.

  10. Your lovely photos just make me sigh. I wish I could hop on a plane and just go visit your beautiful island again. Our pastors are going there next week and I’ve offered to carry their bags but so far they haven’t taken me up on it. LOL.

    Miss you and your sunset pictures at FFF!

    • I miss FFF as well. I sent you an email about it. Okay Susanne, my dear sweet friend…we’re you either smoking something you shouldn’t have been or had a tad bit to much of the hair of the dog that bit ya? ROFLMAO!!! All those photos are when I was in Seattle. LOL. Thank you for remembering my photos and maybe someday you can get over here :) Hey, I know…be a stowaway LOL :)

  11. Great photos, but Nicole might accuse you of plagiarism.

  12. wow, a stunning trip! great job with the gulls :)

  13. Excellent photos Thom! The birds are great and I love the “View off Ferry looking towards Friday Harbor”

    • Thank you my friend. That shot to me is just magical. I stayed on the front of the ferry in the cold and just stared for a very long time. It was a breath taking view :)

  14. looks like a cold day in seattle, but i’m sure its a nice distraction from warm and sunny hawaii…who needs that?

  15. I coulda swore that I already responded to this one … musta dreamed it. lol Love the pics, esp the top 2. :D

    • My dear sweet Larisa. I went and checked my email and there was no comment from you on this post. I even checked Weekend Reflections and none there either…So you must have had a dream about the tropics and getting out of your cold weather LOL. Glad you enjoyed these. I like the second one the best :)

  16. There is something very familiar about these pics. I am trying to place just what it is …

  17. Love the seagulls! The only bird I was ever able to photograph was too high up. It doesn’t count.

  18. Love the view off the ferry to Friday Harbor and the seagulls following the ferry. That one needs to be enlarged to really appreciate it. :)

    • Mahalo my friend. I’m glad you liked. And yes most of my pictures all need to be enlarged. I guess it’s because of the width of my post template. Oh well. Thank you my friend. :)

  19. WoW! Great shots! Your blog is so cool, great template!

  20. Enjyed this beautiful collection of photos! Seeing those seagulls in flight is quite exhilerating!

  21. These are still nice to see! What a fun trip that must have been. ~

  22. Those are lovely sceneries!
    I like all those seagulls following the ferry!
    Wonderful!

  23. I like the photos of the birds. All of these are nice shots though, Thanks for sharing them.

  24. What a beautiful part of the world!

    (but pssst, don’t tell them—I’d *still* rather be in Hawai’i!) LOL

  25. Seattle is so beautiful, I can see why you keep posting pictures. Wait until I start posting pics from Hawaii! :)

  26. Beautiful scenery. I don’t mind so many pictures of Seattle. I have never been there so it’s nice to see the pictures. I am a huge fan of water scenery.

  27. A beauty of a post….great photos.
