Description
Just another beautiful, ordinary spot on Lopez Island.
The sun was just going down. It was that time of day when you're not sure you'll even get a shot because the light is fading, and when the autofocus kicks in you smile, click, and hope for the best.
Dusk is my favorite time of day, that perfect balance point between what has gone before and what is yet to come. A transition from daylight reality to the mysteries of the night. At twilight, almost anything is possible ...

Oh Tara - how absolutely beautiful. Perfect compo and soft light! Well done dear friend! :)
What a great shot, very atmospheric well done!
Wonderful photo and nice commentary
wonderful image!!!!!
A very lovely capture of a peaceful moment :-)
beautiful light !!
It is so lovely, although I often find this time of day melancholic.
A sterling shot. You got me going with "dusk" and "twilight". It is a gorgeous time of the day. And it is a fleeting edge isn't it? Nicely done.
A lovely scene, I do like this time of the day when its warm, sitting and watching the light fade is very relaxing.
Beautiful composition. excellent work
Excellent shot!!
Excellent composition !
I love how the sky is so much darker than the water here; a fantastic capture, with all the magic inherent in this time of day!
Wonderful shot! :)
Great shot you are right about dusk being a good time to take pictures the light is special. I don't think I would trust that jetty though.
excellent capture!
I just love this, Tara May wonderful capture Happy Easter warm hug and love, Linda Kaye
Impeccable lighting in this shot, which creates a clear sharp, contrasting and silhouetted image.
You said it all!!! Superb.It speaks! I wished to be there!Beautiful all around!
Beautifully composed and excellent light Tara. I hope you had a Happy Easter!
I love how the water is dominant in this along with the shadows, but the sky is so vivid. It's great the way the last bits of the light are reflecting on the water as the night begins to take over. Wonderfully moody and atmospheric. Great shot. PS: Chip will comment on this, but he's got to wait until I log off. :-)
got a peaceful time
the texture on the water is wonderful, it commands all the space you give it: You must've known that inside because you let it speak to you and allow it to dominate. And the foreground pier & pillars are the perfect texture (decay, revealing all the natural lines of the wood) and in perfect shadow for the water, as is the background & sky color. Love how the water fills our minds as we view this. Beautiful work Tara, once again. This trip has produced real beauty from you.
Everything looks so peaceful. Beautiful. Aloha
Excellent shot
fabulous!
Wonderful photo !!!
These are the kinds of scenes that stop me in my tracks, make me sit and take it all in. Beautiful, peaceful, serene, just looking at it gives me a sense that, for the moment, all is right in the world.
Wonderful light and mood you've captured here. Excellent shot!
Now THAT'S! Photography!
