Mt McKinley, North America’s tallest mountain rises to 20, 320 ft, and dominates the Alaska range with its prominent face and ridges that capture light in an everchanging fashion. These are some images I’ve gathered over the years.
Enjoy a mixture of wildlife photos from Alaska’s lush southern coast to its icy northern shores, in all seasons. With the snow beginning to melt in Alaska’s interior, I’m getting excited about the upcoming photo ventures this summer.
For those photographers out there who have your camera equipment insured, you might appreciate this little bit of economic redemption.
