Mt.McKinley, Denali National Park, Alaska – Image 2556

Oct 1, 2013 | 0 comments

Mt. McKinley is North America’s tallest mountain standing at 20,320 feet. I shot this photo in late August from Camp Denali between 9pm and 10pm. What I liked about this image was how the clouds almost turned black while the golden light of the sunset lit up the mountain. I love staying at Camp Denali because it is the only place in the park where you can get a 24-7 view of the mountain. This photo appears in my book, Alaska: A Photographic Excursion on page 136. Camera: Nikon F5, Lens: 80-400mm F3.5-5.6 Nikkor/ Film: 35mm Velvia slide film-Mark Kelley
