Photography: Seattle Ferry

Part of my trip earlier this summer involved taking the Seattle Ferry. I panicked when we got up to the gate, unaware there’s more than one destination, and ended up taking to extra two rides. Oops! Good thing I found it peaceful and fun.

Here are some pictures from those rides. Let me know if you have a favorite.

  5. Very cool photos! I like the foggy looking ones best, but that first one with the sunlight glinting on the water is really nice. I’ve been on a ferry once, down on the TX coast. It is a strange experience, but fun. 🙂

    • Thanks! The foggy photos are my favorite too. You are right, it’s certainly strange. On our last ferry ride, #4 because of my mistake, my van was parked at the very front. It felt a bit like my van had turned into a boat, which would be rathe amazing, actually. My daughter found the entire thing a bit wobbly, but I enjoyed it. Almost like flying!

  6. I like them all. I grew up an hour north of Seattle. We often took ferries for weekend trips, plus when I was in middle school and high school, a girlfriend and I would ride our bikes onto ferries and spend the day cycling on an island. You brought back great memories.

    • I’m so glad I could bring back those memories for you! It must have been a magical place to grow up. It was my first time taking a ferry, and I saw a bunch of people on bikes, and totally thought that would be a blast.

      • It was
        It was idyllic. The first time I brought my husband up to Washington state we took a trip on ferries for a week, staying in cabins, just letting him (and me) experience it. We had no agenda or travel plans. It all worked out.

  8. Hello Brigitte. I won’t ask if you are well – your beautiful photos attest to that already. I’m sorry, but I have to say that I cannot keep up with the volume I’m receiving, despite my best efforts. So, I tried to unsubscribe but could not find the button. Please help me out here, and many thanks for all the years I have been receiving them. Blessings, Peter-James.

  9. Good memories for me as well. I’ve been on all of the ferries on the current WSDOT map, but I think the one out of Anacortes I only took to Lopez Island. My favorite trip occurred when my wife and I had moved to WA in the late ’90s and I spent time on one of the longer routes writing in my new journal with a new fountain pen and gazing out the window at one of those tables. The ferries there are so much cooler than the ones across rivers here in NC, but the one from Hatteras to Ocracoke is similar to WA and pretty good.

    I like how you captured the common environment there on Puget Sound: a dim gray fogginess where one wonders if maybe it is nearing dusk (even though your watch says 10 a.m.)
