Semiahmoo Spit
October 27th, 2025
I had a hard time going out on this particular morning. Still having issues with walking on uneven ground but that is mostly mental not physical. My Personal Trainer has done a good job of helping me get more and more confident and that has resulted in easier visits to places like Semiahmoo Spit.
The water was fairly calm and first the first hour I only saw a few great blue herons who flitted around. I had a pleasant walk and kept going until I ran out of the gravel along the water on one side. I usually stay there because the light is much easier to capture on my subjects when it is coming from behind me and illuminating the subject.
I moved over to the other side where you need to shoot for the sides except on cloudy days like this one. I found two loons together and was able to get some great shots of them in the water.
