Comment from Donna Ruiz


Another beautiful look at your beautiful Alaska. There is so much to absorb in this shot from the beautiful fall colors in the foreground, to the little bit of winding road, to the snowy mountains in the background and, finally the beautiful cloudy sky. The colors are natural and stunning. It does look like your background mountains are tilting up hill to the right. I'm not sure if this needs to be straightened or, if the mountains are actually oriented that way. Maybe I can see for myself if I am able to still visit in July. :) Lovely image Pat.

Simply beautifully, Pat. It surely covers all the gorgeous topography and colors of Alaska all I one shot. As always, perfectly composed with excellent detail and DOF.

The view of the sun-lighted valley and mountains in contradiction with the hazy mountain range and the clouds in the background is very impressive. Your photo is well focused and exposed. I enjoy the realism of color and light. The landscape is perfectly composed, balanced and framed.

I take it from your commentary that going (only) 65 miles is comparable to me going into my backyard to shoot the cranes. A beautiful scene that is elegantly composed and shown in excellent colors.

Pat,
A wonderful picture up in Hatcher Pass in the Talkeetna mountains in Autumn
. The sun shining from the right highlighting the beautiful colours of the Autumnal vegetation while the mountains in the background are seen through a blue haze under the low flying clouds overhead. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.
Susan
