Excellent, excellent shots! Valdez is soooo pretty, shame most folks miss that area. The road going out of town is just spectacular! Love your autumn shots of it.

Wonderful images. My favorites are 2 & 4. They used to call Valdez the Switzerland of America. I lived in Alaska for four years and used to visit Valdez a lot. Wonderful place in the summer.

Hi Mike: Nicely composed, wonderful color, the mist/clouds are great. Now go back and look at the light in each image. To me the first and last are favorites. Imagine how these images would be upto "the next level" if they had been shot at the low light of dawn or evening. Note especially the light on golden trees in #1 and imagine the mountains and the sky being hit with the same early light. The sky, too, might have been more dramatic. Those mountains are amazing, but what if you had made the mist you main subject? Just moving the image up a bit on this site, cropping out the mountains (in the first image) I really like just the rising mist and those trees (also crop up just a bit along the bottom showing only the water).
as a refresher, google "why does mist rise from lakes in the morning?"
