Marine Park at Dusk

A steady stream of silhouettes
parade up and down the railroad tracks--
color leaching away as the sun sets
turning reds and blues and greens to black.

Skywatch Friday: Cormorants at Dusk

Some fly.

Others swim,

perch,

or stretch their wings.

Whatever their pose,

they know they look handsome

against an orange glow.

Skywatch Friday: Silhouettes at Play

the sun sets

they're tired, they're hungry, their pants are wet

yet

they leave with regret

Sunset at Marine Park

A variety of people came to Marine Park to enjoy the early spring weather and watch the sun go down.

Silhouettes at Le Chat Noir

These artful silhouettes in the window greet you when you walk into Le Chat Noir, one of my favorite places to go for something scrumptious. This is one of many creative accents that give the restaurant a whimsical French flair. It's located in the Sycamore Square Building (originally called the Mason Block Building), which is the oldest building in Fairhaven, Bellingham. It was built in 1890, which isn't all that old to the rest of the world!
