I am out of Order

As I am not a blogger I have no idea what or why I am doing this. My friends that have facebook should be able to find my FB page which has most of these pics and more. The others should note that my first attempt at writing this is the second or bottom post. Start here to find out you should start at the end followed by the middle. For my next attempt i have two choices - 1. start a separate blog or B add a page to this one. Well before I started to try to re arraign this post I had already created a second blog so I am pretty sure that adding a page would have been better. Any thoughts from any where would be great...Thailand I looking at you.

Photo Favorites

Skagway Alaska.


Mendenhall Glacier, Juneau Alaska
I tried to give depth to this by framing the couple an the left. The deep blue color in the glacier comes across by a nice contrast with white and light blues. 

Ketchikan Alaska
This photo looks like I used a fish eye lens but all I had for this trip was a 12mp Kodak easy share. I got the effect by using a forward house with a curved road.  

Light vs Dark

I took several pics of this sunset. I like this one the best because of the fishing  boat and the layered shades the land gives from front to back.

Yes this is not upside down and yes it is a reflection in a pond.  I framed the leaves on the top right to help make the distinction of top and bottom


These are some of my favorite pictures taken while visiting Alaska. All of them were shot with a 12 mp Kodak easy share. I wonder what I could have captured with a higher quality camera and a better zoom lens. We saw seals and bears that I could have shot with a nice zoom. I don't think I would have gotten any of the whales. We saw both killer and humpback. If given a second chance I would have tried with the multi shot function and at best might have caught a few tails. Living in Las Vegas and seeing clear skies with brown landscape had me taking quite a few pics of clouds and colorful sunsets. I may add them later or just create another page. 

OK What do you want to know or hear about

 Pics are from Juneau AK Mendenhall Glacier and Nugget Falls





 The picture below is from Skagway Alaska, Dewey Lake. It was a 3.5 mile hike up a steep mountain, but I was told it was worth it. I did not make that trip so this is one of the pics that was taken by someone in my family but not me.
I am not a blogger yet here one is. I can not explain which is a rare thing for anyone else to witness. I am just  in the machine looking to communicate across a great divide. Photos and my unusual look on life, politics, religion.... wait that all falls under life. Lets see if I can get the one follower I look for and any others are just lucky to pick the blog that could mean everything or nothing or both.
