Great tug shot Jon. I am enjoying the man in the sceen - I would be scared to death to do this job as it's very dangerous. The tug is so cute - great shot.
Thanks for your comment elsewhere.

Wonderful series of shots, the colors and detail are amazing, the person really give it nice perspective as I would have had no idea how big this boat was without him in the shot. very well done...

Ken,

The distant hill is about an hour away by ferry. Your point about logging is taken, but look at the size of those logs. We have about the same amount of forest now that we did 100 years ago, but have a problem with monoculture. The pine beetles are causing a real problem.

Right now, American protectionism is keeping logging down. The fellow on the logs may be losing his job soon.

Interesting shot, Jon. This fellow is actively contributing to the global warmth by chopping all the forests, off. The distant forest on the hills awaiting the same fate, sooner or latter.

Reminds me the film 'Insomnia' in which the villan Robie Williams traps Al Pacino, among the, enormous floating logs.

The shore looks so close and yet its 2 km away ! Mordern technology at its best.

regards,
ken.

Good shot, Jon. I especially like your inclusion of the worker working in the frame, contributing physical dimension and human interest. A beautiful place nicely captured.
