Alaska#9

Gull colony on a vertical cliff, Chugach Mountain range, seen from Prince William Sound, Alaska.  Multiple frames from a D4S shot with Nikkor 200-500mm f5.6 lens, stitched together to make this pano.  Seeing so many gulls at once on a vertical cliff was a first for me.

In search of light …

Light is key.

I was photographing around Lake Powell in the Glen Canyon National Recreational area in December 2012.  This image was made one evening.  The light was not spectacular.
