Admiralty Island, Juneau, Alaska – Image 2983

Nov 23, 2016

I shot this cloudburst over Admiralty Island from an Allen Marine whale watching boat approaching the southern end of Shelter Island. In the photo business we call it God Light. Photographers live for this moment of brilliance. This image illustrates the month of July in my 2017 Juneau Calendar. I will be signing calendars at the Juneau Public Market this upcoming weekend. Enjoy the photo and Happy Thanksgiving. Thank you for visiting. Camera: Nikon D800, Lens: Nikkor 70-200mm F/2.8, ISO 200, f/5.6, hand held, digital capture ©Mark Kelley
