Little Qualicum River Estuary

Finally strapped on my big camera and lens and hiked the two miles along the beach to the river estuary. Lots of birds all feasting on the dead salmon washing down the river after spawning. A little snow on the mountains..a few eagles too far to photograph and a sore back:-)

Breathtaking scenery, and the light is wonderful. From the birds at the bottom to the clouds at the top, so much beauty packed into this one frame. V

absolutely fabulous..the view is spectacular, the dampness palpable, the subtle colours so embracing, the vibrance of clouds, mountains, trees and a swarm of birds on the sandbar so richly fulfilling...tremendous work Jess...V
