Setting Moon, Icy Strait, Alaska-Image #2936

When I go out on a shoot I almost always have a definite image I am looking for. On the evening when I shot this photo I was camping on Thunder Mountain to shoot a cover image of hikers on the mountain with the glacier and mountains as a stunning backdrop (see image posted on 9-16-2015). ...

Sitka, Alaska-Image #2935

Sitka, Alaska has one of the most beautiful seaside settings of any town in the state. The evening town lights and the little islands of Sitka Sound disappearing off into the darkening night enhance the beauty of this magical place. This same location shot during the day looks fine but does ...

Cow Moose, Denali National Park, Alaska-Image 2931

This photo is all about fall colors. I shot this image of a cow moose in the lush fall colors of the tundra in Denali National Park. I was there in fall of 2014 leading a photo workshop for Camp Denali, the only lodge that has a 24-7 view of the Denali (formerly known as Mt. McKinley). I have ...
