http://ourworldtuesdaymeme.blogspot.com/ One of the things I have loved most about my world here in Seattle was being near the water. When I first moved here I lived with my son in Ballard, a small suburb of Seattle, and I was only minutes away from Puget Sound. Once I got into photography I spent many hours there taking pictures and drinking in the beauty. That part of Seattle I'm going to miss!! So, today I will share some of that beauty with you! Enjoy! |
All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child. Marie Curie |
Trees are the earth's endless effort to speak to the listening heaven. Rabindranath Tagore |
Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair. Kahlil Gibran |
The poetry of the earth is never dead. John Keats |
Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished. Lao Tzu |
Great things are done when men and mountains meet. This is not done by jostling in the street. William Blake |

What a beautiful area Sylvia. I just saw a documentary on Puget Sound. That's my favourite Gibran quote!

Great shots and wonderful header. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
You certainly have a wealth of wonderful photos to remind you of your favorite haunts, Sylvia. I also like the saying about nature and not being in a hurry … it is something worth pondering as being in a hurry seems to be a habit in modern life. :)
Hi Ms. S, wherever you go, I am sure there will be as equal of a beauty in your new world!
Those clouds look like there is precipitation soon!
Good luck and take care!
Sylvia, Lovely photos from the Puget Sound. The coastline and beaches look pretty. I hope you enjoy your new place! Thanks for sharing, have a happy week ahead.
I love the photo of the snow capped mountains in the background. It makes me long to go walking in them.
It is a nice series of photos, Sylvia. When you get to Portland, you will find equally interesting places to aim your camera at.
What a wonderful world ~ Gorgeous photography and quotes are divine ~

A beautiful series of photos. I can see why you would want to spend so many hours by the water - you have captured so many different moods there.
So love all these perspectives of Puget Sound! Water especially is my kind of world! Especially love the interesting view in the last photo!
Beautiful images and quotes as always.
It doesn't get better than this Sylvia anywhere in the world! Thanks for inspiring all of us!
I do like that rain cloud - please send a few (but not too many) over to us!

I'm sorry I never got to get together with you when I was in town... :(
I'll miss your pics of the area greatly. Hugs.
Too gorgeous, we'll miss these scenarios Sylvia, but I feel sure that where ever your camera is looking will be a pleasure to behold.
