Dreaming of Ft. Warden

Each morning during the ArtFest duration I would drag myself out of bed before 6am, get dressed and head out for a walk to the light house. Each journey surfaced new treasures from shells to critter tracks on the beach. One Bald Eagle was always visible, you just had to do a little tree searching. The first day, a day with out camera, it was pearched about 50ft away.

Here are some of the images from the 5 days.

On the first night we open our collaborative projects.
