Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
This is a hunter from the Hadzada tribe. The last truly nomadic tribe in Tanzania. I got to “follow” him- aka run for 3 miles thru thorny bushes while contemplating that there are lions, elephants, and mean pumbas all around!
Then he sat to cook the bird he shot with an arrow…
I though I’d try something new each Friday. An escape to far away places.
Participating in photo safaris around the world brings me GREAT joy. I hope these photos bring you some too.
These are wildebeests in migration across Tanzania.

Our air was so bad recently it was considered unsafe to venture outdoors. So I browsed through archives. This is a barn that I found some years back in the Skagit Valley, an agricultural region north of Seattle. I like the colorful touch of the quilt pattern that dresses up the building.
Thankfully, our air has returned to the safe, breathable range again.
I was reminded recently that I have many photos I took of the Chihuly Garden and Glass in Seattle when I was there some years back. And I was hungry for color after many days of smoke filled skies.
The Chihuly is located in the Seattle Center, steps from other iconic attractions. There are indoor exhibits like I’ve shown in the first photo and an outdoor garden where glass sculptures are mixed with plants, shrubs and trees.
Seattle’s iconic Space Needle towers over the garden.
Indoors and out there is a vast array of Chihuly glass art.
This was taken near a small harbor last November on the island of Terceira in the Portuguese Azores Islands. The light on Terceira formed strong memories.
