Alaska Photography and Photo Tours: Specializing in Wild Lands & Wild Life
Not quite sure why I never posted this on the blog before… sometimes I amaze myself. I am really happy with this image, from my last tour to Cordova. There are still a few seats on my small group tour to Cordova in June of 2011. I’ll be posting a full tour description soon, but [...]
I’ve recently received several tour/workshop reports from clients I’ve had the distinct pleasure of working with over the past several months. First off, I want to thank them for taking the time to send me their feedback. It is very valuable to me – and allows me to hone in on areas that I need [...]
Hartney Bay is well known for the visiting migratory birds. This location sees a lot of birds the first week of May. How many? Oh… around 5 million. Give or take. Two photography tips for this location in May? Yeah… you’ll thank me later. Tip #1 – Wear rain gear at all times. Might be [...]
It can be very difficult to portray certain scenes, especially landscapes and macro photos, so that scale is evident. Unless you were standing there yourself, size is all a guessing game. So here is a quick snap I took of one of my clients from this recent tour to Cordova, Eric B. of Missouri. The [...]
Just a quick post to show another variety of wildflower that is everywhere in Cordova. The wild buttercup. I thought this would make a decent subject in front of a group of out of focus lupine as the background. Ahhh… Cordova… Stay tuned.
Sometimes, words can’t possibly do a place justice. Sometimes, pictures fall short. Sometimes, a location hits you so hard that it literally changes your outlook. It sets your mind reeling, sways your body, and makes your heart long to return – even before you’ve left. For me, Cordova is that place. The old saying is [...]
The world’s moving so fast, the man who says it can’t be done is interrupted by someone doing it. – Elbert Hubbard 2010 will be the 6th straight year that I’ve been shooting solely in Alaska. In truth, it feels as if I’ve just arrived. Everything is still new and fresh to me, even though [...]
This is a good time to remind you of my upcoming photo workshop/adventour in June. Seats are limited, but we have a few spots open at this time. Please click HERE to read more about this one of a kind experience. Of course, if you have any questions, please contact me at any time. I [...]
This is the workshop I’ve been subtly hinting about for a while now. I’m very excited to be hosting this workshop along with my good friend Gary Gullett. Gary is the owner and founder of Chicago Photo Safaris, and we met over 1 year ago while photographing the wild waters wildlife of Kenai Fjords National [...]
No, it’s not a drinking problem. Although, there are plenty of fluids around… As I said in my last post, Cordova is drenched in vibrant life and color. It is the most lush place I have ever seen. If you allow your eyes to drift down from the mountain peaks, you will first meet solid [...]
Grab the Kleenex (Kleenex is a Kimberly-Clark brand), make sure all your manly friends aren’t around to see you, and get ready to feel the need to cuddle up with something soft and warm. 1 week ago, I boarded the high-speed ferry in Whittier, bound for Cordova on the eastern edge of the Prince William [...]
