[photos] Rainforest Writers Village, and Lake Quinalt

This past weekend, I was at Rainforest Writers Village, on the shores of scenic Lake Quinalt in the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State. Had a lot of fun, took a few pictures. Sadly, none of the wildlife I saw was willing to pose at the appropriate moment.

Moonset, just after sunset. Note the apparent phase of the moon. I'm still not sure how the heck that works.
