“Once Upon Alaska” 4th Book Spread…Image 2863

Salmon returning home is an iconic Alaska event.  I shot this image of pink salmon through the window of the fish ladder at the Douglas Island Pink and Chum (DIPAC) Ladd Macauley Visitors Center.  Pink salmon, the smallest of the Pacific salmon found in Alaska, weigh on average 3.5- pounds and average 20-25 inches long.  This is the fourth book spread in “Once Upon Alaska” – my upcoming children’s book.
