Seward Boat Harbor at Sunrise, Alaska.
This beautiful sunrise was Monday morning.
This time of year, because the sun rises at such a shallow angle compared to the horizon, the colorful portion of the sunrise lasts 15 minutes or more. I always have to adjust my thinking when I travel to a place like Arizona. There the sun rises nearly perpendicular to the horizon, and the best color can disappear after 5 minutes or less.
Snow covered tree along Resurrection Bay, Seward, Alaska.
Sticking with the tree theme – here is another image from snow storm last weekend.
The gloomy, dark storm clouds moving up Resurrection Bay, really helped emphasis the fresh white snow on the branches.
This weather has me thinking it might be a perfect time to point out my post on winter photography tips.
These mountain ash berries in our backyard were buried by another foot of fresh powder snow yesterday.
Lots of precipitation, along with unusually cold temperatures made for a lousy summer, but those same conditions have made for an awesome winter!Read More
Mountain alpenglow, Seward, Alaska.
Here is another new image captured right from our front porch late last week – sometimes it feels like cheating!
I love how only this one peak from the entire range emerged from the clouds, and if that wasn’t enough, it then became briefly illuminated with wonderful pink alpenglow. We get some of our best light this time of year – I look forward to more!
Moon over the mountains, Seward, Alaska.
We got a call last night from blog reader and salmon charter extraordinaire, Captain Kid. He said, “take a look out the window and check out the moon”. I looked, no moon. Perfect I thought, this gave me a couple of minutes to get everything ready and to get in to place. Thanks Captain!
Chugach National Forest Guide
Here is another cover I hadn’t had a chance to share. I think the Chugach National Forest is an amazing region that rivals most National Parks in beauty and diversity.
Seward Mountain Sunrise.
No matter how much fun a trip is, it is always nice to be home. The one thing that always strikes me when stepping out of the Anchorage Airport is the crisp, freshness of the air. It is hard to describe, but I find it invigorating!
Now the one thing that takes a bit of getting used to this time of year is the short days. I captured this image just a short time ago at about 9:15 in the morning. As you can see the sun isn’t up yet!
