Description
Standing on the lower car deck of the ferry coming back from Port Gamble on Saturday. Denise and Marilyn and I hung out at the rail, enjoying the beautiful sunshine and warm weather.
I took about a million pictures of the bow wave. The ferry was really haulin' a$$ that day! We speculated that the captain was up there in the sunshine, throttle at full, yelling "Whoo-hoooo!!!" When we got close to Edmonds, we slowed waaaaaaay down, and sat waiting for a little while for the other boat to depart the dock.

It reminds me of a Japanese painting; the sideways movement and the frothy top...fantastic shot!
Whoo-hooo indeed!
I love this
It looks like very tough prussian-blue leather! Superb!
Wonderful capture! beautiful colours
WOW! Look at these waves. I love it. Beautiful capture Tara :-D
How spectacular!!! I just love the angle... looks like you are in the water! Well done Dierbaar!
A beautiful capture! I love riding on the ferries and I've had some wonderful rides in great weather and one when the weather was stormy and I never laughed so hard as when we tried to walk. It was like a drunk trying to get from point A to B and it wasn't going to happen in a straight line.
what an excellent capture! I like the wave
Magnificent, power in a picture
Bow waves are fascinating...it just reeks with the weight and power of your large ferry. I was amazed on our last crossing, sitting in the RV without a good view outside...I was wondering when we were going to leave the dock and then found out we were already half way across that piece of the sound. I couldn't feel the movement! Great pic :*
I must have taken a zillion shots of this same thing and never once got one I liked!! And here you captured it exactly how I saw it--I love this!! And yeah, that sun was wonderful!!
Fantastic capture!!!
Excellent capture!
Lovely. It sounds like you had a great time.
Very well captured!!!!
Excelent capture of the movement of the water.
Fantastic shot Tara, superb!!
LOVE IT!
cool shot
One thing about riding a ferry is it keeps you low to the water and there isn't much in your way. You made the best of that situation and got one heck of a dynamite shot.
This shot rocks, even if the ferry itself didn't...hopefully it didn't, at least, as that might have caused a bit of seasickness. I love that frothy wave cap and the deep, rich color! Funny, but when I saw the thumbnail and read the title, I was thinking along the lines of interstellar travel and thought bow wave? They're traveling fast enough to compress hydrogen in front of them? Then I realized that this picture is aquatic in nature and taken in this world. Sometimes I wonder about me.
I do the same thing!
What a beautiful capture!
An image of liquid movement - still moving as I look at it! Well done, Clive
Nice.
Excellent image. The way you've composed this makes it look like tidal movement. You'd never know it was manmade.
Beautiful "draw" in the water before the wave breaks. Dana
You have seen and caught the beauty of this gorgeous wave! Excellent done!
Great capture...I love going on ferries
