Mendenhall Rafters, Juneau, Alaska…Image 2884

I never tire of photographing Juneau’s Mendenhall Glacier. The glacier has been in the news quite a bit this last year, and in my mind it deserves all the attention. From the now famous Mendenhall ice caves to two jökulhlaup events in one summer, the Mendenhall demands attention. This image brings together action and beauty – from pink fireweed to perfectly lined up yellow paddles mirrored in the somewhat smooth Mendenhall river surface, to the majestic Mendenhall Towers rising above blue ice. This image illustrates the month of August in my Juneau, Alaska 2015 Calendar and is available as a print.  Thanks for visiting www.markkelley.com!
