An old Kodachrome 64 slide image scanned on a Canon Canoscan8400F. Taken with the Minolta XG-1. 35-135 lense & polarizing filter, settings unknown.

Yesterday was kind of a black & white day. So here are some photos to match the day.

Serenity Falls on a not so serene day.

Eklutna Lake on an overcast day.

Stopping to enjoy the view.

A view of Eklutna Lake from the headwaters.

Load'er up and let's go home.

Here comes our ride home. C-130's may be a noisy ride, but just take your earplugs. I'd ride one of these anywhere and feel a whole lot safer than many other types of planes I've been in.

The city of St. Paul.

St. Paul Island, the west side on a nice day.

Our 5-star accomodations, the King Eider Hotel. To its right, the only bar in town, the King Eider Bar! How conveeeenient.

Bering Sea crabbers off St. Paul in January.

St. Paul, Pribiloff Islands

No Rats!

St. Paul. Pribiloff Islands. Miles of beautiful black sand beaches and not a condo on the horizon.

The view up front is much better.

The first class cabin

"Passengers in coach, please refrain from using the restroom in the first class cabin. Thankyou."

C-130 looking back. "Please keep your seatbelts fastened, your tray tables up and your seatbacks in an upright position until the light goes off indicating that it's safe to move about the cabin."

Another shot of Anchorage from the top of a Ferris wheel. These were taken during the Fur Rondy in February with a Canon S500, hand held.

Here's a photo of Anchorage taken from the top of a Ferris wheel.

Alaska Range

Starke Florida

Southern gothic. Starke, Florida

Ok, one last Florida photo. This too was taken atthe Olustee Civil War Battlefield. Canon S500.

Another Florida photo. Taken last month at the Olustee Civil War Battlefield.

No, this was not taken in Alaska. This is Starke, Florida and was taken last month with Canon S500, hand held.

The fun part of this morning's bike ride, going home. Screaming downhill all the way. One of the beauties of the Canon S500's is that they are so compact that they can just fit in your shirt pocket.

The view from the top of the bike ride

Another shot from this mornings bike ride. The lighting was poor and it was handheld, in a shakey hand I might add, but I like it anyway.

Taken around 5:30 this morning while on a morning bike ride. Using a Canon S500, settings on auto and handheld.

Sunday evening back home. This is looking down our road from in front of our house.

Another photo from this evening's foray.

Sunday evening at Beluga Point. Got a call from a friend who had spotted a pod of belugas working their way into Turnagain Arm, so we went tot have a look. Didn't see them, but it was a nice evening and we had a good time.

Glacier Bay, evening, low tide
