I am amazed at the many ways people will express themselves. They will even adorn their camels in the most interesting of ways. This is from odditycentral.

San Juan Island
Friday Harbor, San Juan. Accessible only by watercraft, or emergency helo, San Juan was a wonderful, idyllic experience. It was late March, and apparently the off season. We encountered very few people. Those we did bump into were quite friendly.
A different shot with a slightly fisheye look of Friday Harbor from the ferry showing many boats moored in slips.
South Beach on San Juan. We were a party of three and the only ones on this pristine but driftwood-cluttered shoreline.
The Cattle Point Lighthouse on San Juan. We sat out here for more than an hour with only a couple of cars passing by. There was a comfortable bench with a great serene view.

This lighthouse on San Juan is rather small compared to some. But it still stands out as an icon against the surrounding scape.
One of the natives of San Juan. I was at max zoom on my 250mm telephoto lens and this as good as I could get. The red fox, not very trusting of humans here, is but one of many animals on the islands. There are deer, voles, otters, rabbits, as well as many species of birds including the Osprey.
Moonlight over Friday Harbor. I have to admit I was pulling out on the ferry and was in a selected mode. In hindsight, I wish I has used a manual setting on this and explored different exposures.
Dusk at Friday Harbor. It was very tranquil and quiet when we pulled out on our way back to Anacortes.
