Alaska#6

Glaciers on Chugach Mountains, as seen from Prince William Sound, Alaska.  Pano shot stitched from several individual frames.  On the left you see the same glacier photographed in Alaska#1, but the boat was a lot closer when this was photographed.  To the right, you see another glacier inlet into the bay.  Nikon D700 with Nikkor 70-200mm f2.8 lens.

Alaska#5

Iceberg, Prince William Sound, Alaska.  This was the first time ever that I witnessed an iceberg.  Needless to say, my Nikon D4S with the Nikkor 200-500mm f5.6 lens was smoking from all the work it got.  For a native Alaskan, this may not be a novel sight.  For me, it was.

Alaska#3

In this shot of the Chugach Mountains shot from Prince William Sound of Alaska, you see a Glacier at the very top with some flow into this bay.  I love how the mountain edges, the glacier, the tiny flows into the bay and clouds all provide a sense of balance in the elements.  This photograph does not do justice to the scale of things I saw that day, but I am trying.  Nikon D700 with Nikkor 70-200mm f2.8 lens.

Alaska#2

This is another shot of Prince William Sound in Alaska.  I like how the clouds settled over the Chugach Mountains.  The conditions were the same as yesterday’s photograph.  This pano shot was also made by stitching several individual frames using Lightroom.  Nikon D700 with Nikkor 70-200mm f2.8 lens.

Alaska#1

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.
