Note that all these photos were taken through windows, and some of them contain reflections from lights inside the boat. They are not flying saucers!

Another set of islands in Queen Charlotte Sound.
BC mainland from somewhere on Queen Charlotte Sound. Not a

The other island with a lighthouse on the sound. This one is
located near the entrance to Smith Sound.

Kelp Head

As we continued north behind Calvert Island the waters calmed down as the islands protected from the worst of the northern Pacific swells.
