Travels To Alaska | Alaska Part I
Nathanael Berends June 11th, 2008
I have arrived safely in Alaska. It is beautiful up here.
And now, some photographs.
Flying into Alaska was georgeous. I sat next to a kindly woman from Anchorage who informed me that, for our viewing pleasure, this flight featured a sunset and a sunrise–in the same few hours. In this photo, the sun has set, though only a little way, below the horizon.
11:34pm. It is bright as daylight outside.
Flying over Alaska.
The sun has risen.
And is now beginning to set again.
This photo shows two things. The first thing, almost exactly center, is a Grizzly Bear and two cubs. The second thing is that I need to buy a longer lens for my camera. Pronto.
Two very young Great Horned Owls. Their mother is off finding food.
Teklanika River. So cool.
(more photos to come. stay tuned.)
