Juneau, Alaska – Image 2847

Oct 1, 2013 | 0 comments

Juneau, AlaskaA classic view from Douglas Island is of the abandoned pump house at Sandy Beach from the Treadwell Mine in the late 1800’s. I assigned myself to shoot a new image of this iconic spot every year, and hopefully would publish the new image in the following year’s calendar. My self-assignment started three years ago, yet I have only been able to come up with two calendar images since I started. Presently, I am editing the images for the 2015 calendar, and the latest pump house images did not make the cut. I will shoot again this year and plan to have one ready for the 2016 calendar! This image was taken with my new Nikon D800 which shoots a 36 mega-pixel image. I love this camera! The detail is so amazing that you can see the dog’s breath. The image illustrates the month of November in my Juneau 2014 Calendar. Thanks for visiting. Camera body:D800, Lens:Nikkor 70-200mm, ISO 100, Digital Capture © Mark Kelley
