Listen to the rain…the rain stops and then starts again. Moments of clearing, fog gently lifts from the Lake Quinault and rises and laces around the vast evergreen forest of the Olympic foothills canopy. Nature’s gifts surrounds us. Large yellow and brown maple leaves, lush green mossy ground, lichen hangs high and low from the evergreens and deciduous trees, birds fly and hop about, and listen to the rushing flow of water as it runs down the Olympic mountainsides filling creeks and some emptying into Lake Quinault. Stay dry and sit a spell inside the historic cozy Lake Quinault Lodge, built in 1926, and visited by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, FDR, in 1937.

I’ve dreamed of photographing a Dia de los Muertos, Day of the Dead, celebration of life and lives lost for many years. This year, on October 31-November 2, I spent time in Santa Fe, New Mexico in awe of the beautiful and touching celebration complete with offerings, ofrendas, tributes to loved ones lost, beautiful and creative sugar skull and skeleton costumes, local tribal indigenous peoples blessings, and moments where I too was touched by the understanding and meaning of loss. We’ve all lost someone. This beautiful celebration is my first and will not be my last. Proudly, my work as a photojournalist and photographer is so humbled by what we witnessed in Santa Fe.

There’s something about the change of seasons that makes you want to travel, feel the sunshine on your back, take in beautiful nature scenery, eat great fresh food and local wine and microbrews, take some photos and just relax! We did all of that and more on our late summer early autumn trip to McMinnville, Bend, Painted Hills, Crater Lake, Florence, Newport, Cannon Beach and Astoria, Oregon. Here are some of the photos I took. Keep Oregon free, natural, weird and fun! www.jollysiendaphotography.com

Portland is weird and wonderful! Just the right recipe to celebrate a milestone birthday during July. Happy birthday Rich! We loved walking around the city. We love the architecture both modern, Art Deco, Neo-Classical, and Beaux Arts. We love the food and drink scene; Spanish, Italian, Greek, Afghanistan, Korean and more plus everywhere we turned there are craft cocktails and Oregon wines — all so great and delicious. The art scene in Portland too thrives with a Saturday market near the river, the Portland Art Museum where we took a break from the July afternoon heat and enjoyed a Monet Giverny exhibit featuring the painting Water Lillies.

What can happen when five girlfriend’s get together on a sunny summer day in July in Seattle…a lot! They enjoyed two Uber car rides, and both just a little bit of a tight squeeze, as they ripped through the city towards acres of roses. The Woodland Park Rose Garden plants 200 varieties of roses and other flora — all blooming bright and beautiful. It was a zen afternoon for the ladies to enjoy nature and each others company. After the park visit, a lite lunch with shaken and stirred cocktails was sipped at Seattle’s historic Smith Tower observatory building, circa 1914. Also, the gals took in the sweeping views of the city and surrounding land from the observation deck; Elliott Bay on display as well as the majestic Mount Rainier. All and all a grand day was enjoyed by all in the Emerald City of Seattle. Let’s plan another getaway soon! Photos by Jolly Sienda Photography and Studio, Bremerton, Washington.

Happy Summer 2025! We enjoyed a boat trip with friends sailing from Anacortes, Washington on the Salish Sea and the Strait of Juan de Fuca passing Whidbey Island, and several of the San Juan Islands in search of marine wildlife. Two days of exploring the beautiful open waters granted us many wildlife sighting gifts. We saw sea lions and harbor seals, the T99 pod of Orca’s killer whales, lots of seabirds: Cormorants, gulls, and an oyster catcher with an orange beak and orange eyes, and American Bald Eagles. Seeing wildlife in its natural habitat is pure joy that we appreciate and do not take for granted. Photos by Jolly Sienda Photography and Studio, East Bremerton, Washington.

Spring 2025 will be a lasting memory. I helped a friend drive her car from Washington State to Arizona. Along the way, we had overnight stops in Bend, OR., and Reno, NV., stayed a couple of days in Bishop CA., to visit friends, an overnight in very hot (107 degrees) Needles, CA., and lastly destination, Apache Junction, Arizona. I drove over 1,400 miles, and we saw dramatic and beautiful countryside with lakes, streams, the high country, the high desert, Cascade Mountains, Cascade Volcanic Arc, the Eastern Sierra Mountains, and the hot Mojave Desert and the Sonoran Deserts. We stopped along the route to take photos, stretching our legs, and during the drive had meaningful conversations. Here are some photo highlights of the trip.

Our trip to Central America included stops in Costa Rica where we took an aerial tram up into the dense jungle canopy. This was very relaxing and took an hour to get up to the highest spot in the jungle and come down again. During our ride we saw and heard birds and saw a Coatimundis on a trail - which was a lucky sighting. We also visited the Costa Rica Animal Rescue Sanctuary and saw white and black faced Capuchins, sloths, and other wildlife that had been rescued.
In Puerto Vallarta we visited the Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe and old town and enjoyed seeing artwork on the Malecon Boulvevard. Photos by Jolly Sienda Photography and Studio.

Our tour guide told us, “Cartagena, Columbia only has one temperature…hot, hotter, hottest!” Yes, it was summer and dry this March 2025 during our visit and the city was captivating! The old city is completely within a wall. Castillo de San Felipe is an impressive fortress in Cartagena. The old town has high sides walk and low cobblestone streets offering a path during the rainy season. Cartagena is a Unesco World Heritage Site. Photos by Jolly Sienda Photography and Studio.
