My wife and I are heading north for an extended visit to our 49th state. I've been planning this trip for a long time. Traveling land sea and air.

We won't have internet access much of the time, but I'll try to post photos as I can. I set up a Zenfolio account: greglepper.zenfolio.com

Wish us well on our big adventure.

Greg

Thank you both. I've got a lot to learn yet, but UHH has really helped me prepare for this trip.

Have a great time. There are so many photo opportunities,but be sure to take advantage of all the other things to do.

What "other things"? "Other things"....are just "more things" to photograph! Anything you can possibly see or do is photographic material! :lol: :roll:
Oops! Well within decent reason of course!

We just came back from that trip - weather was perfect. Saw all the wild animals and more. Enjoy, and charge your camera every night!

Have a great time! Alaska is one of the world's great places for photographers! By the way, a polarizer will help with reflection off some of your glacier photos.

I was there for 12 days last year. Best vacation I ever had and I have been all over Europe, Costa Rica and many US states.
Be sure to take at least 1-2 boat trips out of Seward and you must visit Denali Natl Park and take the extended tour.

Greg, we spent two weeks there a couple of years ago (land & sea). Took just under two thousand photos. It's a photographers dream. So many awesome photo opps.
Enjoy and have fun. Looking forward to your pix. Dave
