Looking a part of downtown Anchorage from under the A street bridge.
Seward Highway Sunrise
Sunsets during this time of the year can turn a plain old snow covered mountain into a work of art. This was shot near Sheep Mountain, along the Glenn Highway, Alaska
Turnagain Pass has beautiful scenery everywhere you look.
A shot i took this last winter of the the last light highlighting the top of the mountain.
Sunset from a popular lookout point Along the Glenn Highway, Alaska
The Icefield of Matanuska Glacier sits at the bottom of the perfectly lit mountains. This handheld, twelve verticle image, 121.56 megapixel panorama was at the limits of what my laptop could handle. To fully appreciate the detail please click on the link at the bottom to see this in its full resolution.
Downton Anchorage, Alaska shot from Glen Alps, AK. This section of Anchorage extends from Fireweed Ln on the left side to Gambell Ave. on the right side.
It is kind of hard to tell, but this image is 2 weeks into Spring season. While many of my friends in the lower 48(Contiguous United States) are taking pictures of flowers, here in Alaska we are still expecting snowfall this week. Here in Alaska we say that we have two seasons, Winter and Summer. We have around 7 months of winter, with snow on the ground. A really short Summer of about 3 months. The rest of the time is transition between winter and summer.
Capturing the sunset reflected off of the ice on Glenn Highway. In the summer there would have been no safe way to get this shot, because of how heavy the traffic is. In the winter you could drive for a while before you see another vehicle.
A cold but beautiful sunset near Eureka Roadhouse. In I really liked how the wind creates unique patterns in the snow. Alaska is such a beautiful place.
At times the Glenn Highway can be a very lonely road. This was shot just west of Eureka Roadhouse on Feburary 6, 2021
Section shot of Anchorage, Alaska. Shot from Glen Alps, AK. This shot extends from 36th Ave in Midtown on the left side to Providence Hospital located on the East side on the right side of the image.
Just after sunrise at Beluga Point, Alaska. With the end of the aurora season quickly coming to an end, it's time to switch to more daytime photography. Great thing about summers in Alaska. Our golden hour can be anywhere from 2 -4 hours. Plenty of time to capture amazing Alaskan sunrises and sunsets.
This is my first attempt at using luminosity masking. I'm really excited to use luminosity mask because I feel that it will allow me to control the lights and shadows in my pictures a whole lot more. I know that there are a lot of little errors in this picture. I will keep practicing and keep improving.
It looks really cold because it was really cold. A cold day gives way to an ever colder night along the Glenn Highway.
Everyone was waiting for the Auroras near the Knik River, Ak
One of the many mountains in Turnagain Pass, AK

Last light along the peaks of the mountains. Glenn Highway, Alaska on 2/6/2021
I stopped at this rest stop to take photos of the mountains in the foreground. Once i stopped and got out of my truck I noticed the interesting patterns in the snow bank. Added bonus that the snowbank has a great leading line to the horizon. This was shot along the Glenn Highway on February 6, 2021
A snowmachiners dream. Turnagain Pass Is covered in snow that is 15 to 20 feet deep. For some perspective , the two small dots at the base of the mountai, on the right, are snowmachiners. This is a 19 verticle image panorama.
