This was a nice sunset in town from Tuesday night.  There has been a couple of humpbacks in the bay all week, but I wasn’t able to find them with this light.

It is a little hard to see in this smaller version, but there is a bit of a fata morgana mirage visible along the shoreline.  Here is a better example:  fata morgana mirage photo.

So, we now have an entire new section on our website of Kauai, Hawaii photos.

Before we went to Hawaii, many people told us Kauai was their favorite island.  I’m glad it lived up to the expectations – it really is beautiful there!

If our blog seems like a contrast lately as I jump between photos of Alaska winter and Hawaii, so does our life right now – living in a winter wonderland while working on photos and videos from a tropical wonderland!

This public use cabin looks funny in the summer because it is perched so high in the air.  Now, it is easy to see why!

This cabin was renovated last summer – looks great.  We have stayed here in the past during the winter – the view from here looking down on Resurrection Bay and Seward is spectacular!

I love to run in these hills and usually try to go twice a week in the summer and once a week in the winter.  I usually leave my camera behind and just enjoy the exercise and experience – but every now and then I bring along my camera and tripod like I did last Friday morning.  I headed up about an hour before sunrise – it was sure a beautiful morning!

This was yesterday morning (10:00 a.m.) as the storm began to clear.  This area is a beehive of activity in the summer.  Right now, not so much!
