I've been lurking around here for a bit, and decided I should share. I've been going through some old photos lately, and thought my trip to Alaska/Yukon in July 2005 fit pretty nicely here. These photos were shot with a Kodak DX7590. Quite a few could benefit from a little (or a lot) post-processing, and maybe I'll do that soon. Anyhoo, I've since significantly upgraded my camera and (I like to think anyway) my skills. Still, I rather like these pics...

    I like how the closest thing to civilization in any of these pics is a road. :D Alaska is beautiful. Nice shots, there's even a few places I've never been. thumb.gif

    Cool Place
    Alaska is one place i would like to go, the spectacular vistas as you have shown and the wildlife. Eagles are like Egrets in Florida i believe. Thanks for the trip and the great landscapes.wings.gif
