Alaska's arctic is an extreme, wilderness landscape, inhabited by animals that have adapted to life in a harsh climate. It is one of my favorite places to photograph, perhaps for its very extreme and rugged space. Many of the wildlife species have unique characteristics to deal with cold and snow. Shooting there in the winter can be cold indeed, as temps can plummet to minus 50 degrees and colder. Below are some images taken across Alaska's arctic region, with a few from Canada's arctic mixed in. All images are available to license as stock photography and may be purchased as art decor prints for home or office. Read more about arctic wildlife.
