Fotoeins Friday: Sunny sail across the Salish Sea

By on

The Salish Sea, 1 of 5.

The Salish Sea is a body of water encompassing Georgia Strait, Howe Sound, Burrard Inlet, Puget Sound, and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The sea is named after the Coast Salish people who are the first inhabitants of the region. The renaming without displacing the old geographic names occurred in 2010.

The picture above is of Active Pass where two BC Ferries’ ships navigate not only the narrow channel in the Gulf Islands of British Columbia, but also must pass each other as they traverse the route on the Salish Sea between Tsawwassen on the mainland and Swartz Bay on Vancouver Island.

I made the photo on 25 July 2007 with a Canon A510 Powershot. This post appears on Fotoeins Fotografie at fotoeins.com as http://wp.me/p1BIdT-7YU.
