The ferry departed at the slovenly, decadent time of 5:30 AM.

But the sun's light was almost white even that early. Here, the view from the main side hatch of the ferry, the ferry floor well below the level of the dock.

3194

Rising sun through the...ship...arch.

3209

The Finnskär cairn. Finnscairn. Nice multicolor littoral strata too.

3210

Receding from Utö, with some diagonals.

3222

One last glimpse of all the towers.

3227

The Jurmo dock — cropped, so it took me a long time to figure out which island this was, lacking easy evidence of Jurmo's desolate expanse, though you can still perceive the paucity of trees here.

3236

Rust raft

3240

Hey we're at Pärnäs, guess it's time to unload.

3256

On the bus, getting back on the car ferry.

3260

A light as big as a head.

3262

The opposite car ferry passing by.

3275

Shoreside barn with tentacled grain elevator.

3278

Gettin' pretty green! I like the look of that open-structure barn.
