I was delighted to see this beautiful waterfall on Sombrio Beach. Unlike most of the other waterfalls along the beaches here, this one is totally hidden. You have to follow a brook a short distance through a moss-covered canyon to find it. While I was photographing, a young couple who were hiking the Juan de Fuca trail stopped in to take a shower, hooting and hollering from the shock of cold water!

I took several long exposure shots of the night sky during the peak of the Eta Aquarids meteor shower, which happens every year around this time, thanks to the debris from Halley's Comet. Though I didn't see a single meteor with my naked (or bespectacled!) eyes that night, my camera's sensor caught many, often two or three in a single exposure. This one showed the longest meteor trail. Make a wish!
