Northern Crow, Mountain Ash, Juneau, Alaska – Image 2590

Oct 1, 2013

This photo won the Alaska Department of Fish and Game photo contest many-many years ago and ran across two pages in National Wildlife Magazine. Besides winning all this accolades, what amazes me about this photo is that I took it out of my car window while parked in the Juneau Empire’s parking lot. This shot will always remind me that I will never know where or when a really good photo is going to happen. This image illustrates the month of September in my 2009 Juneau Alaska Calendar.Nikon F4, Lens: 300mm f/4 Nikkor, Fuji Velvia slide film-Mark Kelley
