I was blessed to spend 13 summers working in Alaska at four different lodges. They paid me to do this stuff! Along the way I met some fascinating people, and of course used my cameras.
My apologies if the Images of Alaska slide show is long. You accumulate a lot of images in thirteen summers. Hopefully it is a good use of your time.
