We paid our $6.70 and boarded the ferry for the 25 minute ride. We were able to get a few shots of Mt Rainier and of the smoke billowing from a forest fire burning on the Olympic Peninsula.
We found a local coffee shop and hung out for about 30 minutes until they started to close down for the evening. So we were off the the waterfront to scope out the scene.
They have these weird rock statues near the docks, they are creative and rather photogenic in the fading light with a longer shutter length.
Back on the ferry I had my tripod but didn't think that with the vibrations in the boat that I'd get any decent shots and didn't want to take the time to set it up. Rich started taking a few shots and how we was shooting them made me to try it too. Basically we ended up holding our cameras in place on a large railing while we took some 20-25 second exposure shots. The result is pretty cool I think.
Got a decent shot of the moon using the same technique.
With a high ISO I took this shot which turned out to be my favorite one of the evening.
