Even six months after my visit, the Alaskan Range still fascinates me. I look forward to returning.

  • I wish I could post the original of this photo. Alaska needs to be seen big.

  • Even as posters, photos can't do this place justice. For a semblance of realism, however, I'm including a free cloud of mosquitoes with every print.
  • Light rays seem to be everywhere in Alaska. Be sure to view this at original size (click the "o").
  • An impressionistic view of an abandoned gold mine.

  • The weather was seldom muted during my visit to Eagle, Alaska. Scattered showers made for rapidly changing and stunningly beautiful lighting. This scene was a dozen or so miles from me but appears closer because of my telephoto lens.
  • Rain makes light, elegant lines as it falls from the sky. Strong backlighting isn’t common so this is rarely illustrated well. I was elated to have this scene in front of my eyes!

  • I shot this during a tough bush flight in Alaska. We went through a converging front system with plenty of turbulence. VFR conditions were worsening so we ended up following the Yukon at 150 feet altitude to our destination.<br /> <br /> It was at this time that I remembered reading that bush flying is one of the riskiest professions on earth...
  • Intensive gold mining had left this hillside stripped of most vegetation. It was fitting then that we visited it on an icy overcast day. Somehow it&#8217;s still beautiful.
  • Sometimes we can go slightly beyond reality in a photograph. What this does reflect accurately is the mood that evening.
  • McKinley base camp. We chartered a de Havilland Otter ski plane in order to get this series.
  • High up in the Alaskan Range near Mount McKinley lies this perpetually frozen bowl of snow and ice. It is an amazing feeling to actually see this in person - something a photograph can't replicate.
