Deception Pass is a narrow channel at the north end of Whidbey Island, near Seattle.
Early on a summer evening the light is fantastic, a platinum sheen on the water, bright bright in the westering sun. The lines of the currents weave towards the cleft in the cliffs, drawing lines on the mirror-smooth water. Fishing boats pass by, drawing their own lines.
Zoom in on the reflections, on the white gold ripples...
