Bucarelli Bay Moon, Prince of Wales Island, Alaska – Image 2507

I was traveling out of Graig on Prince of Wales Island for an early morning shoot and this incredible moon set was happening. The sun was not fully up. I was sure I could not hold steady enough in a bobbing boat to capture the scene unfolding before me. I shot away with a medium sized lens and my wide angles. The light and scene was gone in minutes. With some incredible good fortune the images were sharp. This photo appears in my new book, Alaska: A Photographic Excursion, released just last week. Camera: Nikon F/4, Lens: don’t remember, Film: 35mm slide film-Mark Kelley
