I recently ran across some old photos taken in 2007 when a buddy and I rode our motorcycles to Alaska from Southern California. At the time, I used a new DSLR, a Nikon D-80 with a 18-200 lens. All photos were shot in jpeg (having no idea what RAW was about). We were gone over a month and put over 5K miles on the bikes. We camped along the way and motel'ed it when a shower was in order. When my wife was ask how she felt me being gone a month, she replied, "Couldn't he be gone longer?". Gotta love her sense of humor. Our route took us straight up the coasts of Cal, Oregon and Washington. Caught a ferry to Vancouver Island, Canada, rode to the northern tip, and caught another ferry to Prince Rupert, Canada. From there caught another ferry utilizing the Alaskan Marine Highway System to Haines, Alaska (wonderful way to go - all inland passage). We rode from there to Anchorage, Soldotna and Homer. I was blown away by the shear beauty and vastness of Alaska. Truly an amazing ride and one I'll count as my best.
Regarding these old photos, I decided to see if I could improve a bit in Lightroom. Enjoy. Best viewed in download. Maybe more to come.
