Awesome! How interesting. Your dogs are enjoying the warm water! The sky is gorgeous with the sunset peeking over the mountain. Thanks for sharing! All your photos have me itching to come to Anchorage but I think I will wait til summer! I'm not too fond of the snow. Just in your photos! ;-)

    Thank you very much! Yes, my dogs love to go with me and my camera, the golden retriever loves to wade in water, he doesn?t swim very often, wading is his thing.

We have areas on the Mississippi River around here that don't freeze because of the power plants too. There are bunch of trumpeter swans that congregate in those area. Your part of the world looks lovely with the snow. The colors of the sky reflecting in the water look nice.

    Thank you very much, Ducks come in here during summer. It?s also a great fishing spot!

A very nice sunset scene posted here for our enjoyment. Your traditional composition allows us a great look at your developing dusk. Sharpness and exposure are good. Well done!

An excellent shot. I think the dogs add a lot to the composition although the scene is superb on its own. I like the colors and especially their reflection on the mist shrouded water.

Think Pat I would take a tad of the bottom in this,just so the focus is more on the mist,its a nice view,although its a pity the mist is not a bit stronger,still you can,t have everything,nice view though...Brian

    Thank you very much, I appreciate your thoughts. I have photographed this with more focus on the mist in winter, I?ll post one of these days.

The dogs seem to be having a great time in the warm water. Nice image that captures the multiple colors of the setting sun and reflections on the water. Just a hint of steam rising off the water adds to the overall feel of the shot. Well done.

Not familiar with "honking with my dogs" Maybe you ment hunting. Anyway it is another well composed photograph of a beautiful place. I envy you and enjoy your photographs. Reasons for my five star vote.

A stunning picture of this most beautiful of sunsets the gold in the skies reflected on the water & the mist rising from it into the cold air above framed by the dark hillside & snow covered ground in the foreground. Artistic composition beautiful framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

A fantabulous capture of this golden hour accentuated nicely by that mist.
I like the inclusion of your dogs but the one on the right is not so recognizable save for the tail.
Any other shot where they are more prominent & visible...
They can be great silhouette subjects...

Twilight's last gleaming.
Each day is God's masterpiece;
Every sunset, His signature!
Gorgeous illumination.
Letterbox framing.
Pin sharp focusing.

Good perspective & long depth of field...
Thanks for sharing...
