Late July / early August last year, my family and I visited Alaska.  Needless to say, I carried my photography gear and made some good nature photographs, both landscapes and wildlife.  I have edited around 12000 shots to end up with 65 keepers.  I present them to you now, one a day for the next 65 days.  Hope you like them.

Alaska#1 – Glacier, hills and clouds, Prince William Sound, Alaska, USA, photographed late July.  We stayed overnight in Anchorage and drove our rental car to Whittier, Alaska.  From there, we took a day cruise to see glaciers and icebergs.  Loved the views.  In this photograph, you see a glacier ending up into the Prince William Sound bay.  The mountains you see are the glaciated Chugach Mountains.  It was a foggy day and we weathered cold rain and wind.  It was all worth it.  It was hard keeping the front element of the lens from getting wet.  For this photograph, I used my Nikon D700 with the Nikkor 70-200mm f2.8 lens loaded.  This pano shot was made by stitching several individual frames using Lightroom.  During this shoot, I also had my Nikon D4S loaded with my Nikkor 200-500 f5.6 for other moments.
