I took this photo of Turnagain Arm last Thursday, while driving home from Seward. Everything was so calm that I just had to stop and take a photo or two. You know how it is. Canon S500.

I took this photo of 'Rick from Minto' this summer during one of my trips to Fairbanks. In the evening while I was walking around taking some photos. First I hear this voice yell, "you're no tourist." I look around and here's Rick, making conversation and wanting some money, but not coming out and just asking. After a while I give him my street pan-handler test and ask him what he wants. If he doesn't beat around the bush and says, money, I ask him what for. If he tells me the truth I'll cough up a dollar or two. Otherwise, it's no sale and I walk away. So Rick says, "I'm dry man, I need a drink." Fair enough, he passed the test and told the truth.

Another scanned image from the archives. Taken in the Alaska Range during a trip up the Moose's Tooth. The mountain just to the left of center is Mt. Barille. To the right of Mt. Barille, lost in the mists is the Ruth Amphitheater. Some maps call it the Don Sheldon Amphitheater. Minolta XG-1. Scanned with the Canon Canoscan 8400F.

The Anchorage schools held a cross-country running 'jamboree' yesterday at Russian Jack Park. It was a nice day (for a change) and my daughter was running in the 3rd & 4th grade girls mile run. So I thought I'd post some photos of yesterday's events.
