Very nice. Especially the first one. It looks like there are rocks in the fog behind them. This gives a nice effect...

Great shots, how close were you the the seals in the first shot? Great lighting and the foggy background really makes the shot.
Looks like a great place for shooting.

Great shots. The only dilemna with taking pics on the island this time of the year are the clouds.

Otherwise its a great place to take shots.

Nicely captured. Lovely part of the world. I often felt I was in the middle of nowhere while only being 10 minutes from a large town. Can't beat that. Closest I came to a cougar was at a lake there when I found it's tracks... well they were the right shape and big enough to be a cougar.

Thanks for the comments, everyone! I'm working on processing a few more, but since I've been back at work I haven't had much time... hopefully soon! :)

Lovely shots. I am headed back to Victoria in the next few days. Where did you find the sea lions.


My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.
