A Trip to the Northwest
I’ve never been to Northwest Washington State so when a trip to San Juan Island was proposed by Brent Paull, I talked SCCC Member Basil Katsaros into the trip and headed north to shoot the Black Foxes that are found there – and only there. We found Black Foxes galore and an incredible population of Bald Eagles which presented themselves often and in great numbers. While there, I felt it was a great opportunity to visit the Olympic National Park. This was a stunning experience punctuated by absolutely no rain – something we were told was extremely rare in May. I guess there are some benefits to Global Warming! I have had a devil of a time picking six photos from this trip plus one black and white and believe me, there are a lot more I’d love to include!
