Marta's Birthday Celebration - "Gloaming"

Hood Canal - along the east shore near a small town - Tahuya. Union and Alderbrook Inn is across the canal. The photo is looking west over the Olympics. -Marta  

"Gloaming - what a wonderful way to describe the end of the day. It was warm enough to float out on the water stone warmed while watching the sun set below the Olympic Mountains. So quiet listening to the water clatter on the rocks. The water is so clear. White shells of oysters shine among the pebble shore. Voices drift across the water. Boat slap as they skip across the canal. Lights appear and glitter like gold flecks on the smokey blue horizon." - Photo and words by Marta during her birthday getaway July 2013
