Outstanding set. Looks like much time and effort went into these photos.


Thanks. The 2 color ones were taken on a photo tour in Scagway where it was about 10 below with the chill factor. It snowed soon after taking those, so I was working quickly. Plus, we were only about 5 minutes at each stop. I wish I had far more time to frame them up and change lenses but out of the 6 people on the tour, 3 had cell phones, one had a Canon with a short lens, one guy had a Leica Q2(fixed 28mm lens) and me with my Nikon Z7II and a 24-120 F4 lens. The ship was taken in a drizzle in Icy Strait and the last was from the ship deck while pulling into a port. I want to say Juneau but I'd have to look at the date to be sure. Thanks for the comments.

One bit of advice for those on a cruise. Go up on deck or if you're cabin is on the best side of the ship during the time the ship leaves the ports, get some images. I'm still only about 30% done reviewing my images but here are 2 taken only a few moments apart during the departure from Ketichikan. I was told the weather was outstanding days before arriving and clear skies were expected the days after our departure. You just never know. The salmon should be there by the time you arrive. That means bears too. The whales were already in Juneau and Icy Strait but more were still arriving as we left. We saw one or two in the inside passage at the end of the trip.

An amazing, eye catching duo ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Weather may not have cooperated Mike but your images are very exceptional! My brother and his wife just got back from their Alaskan cruise in late May.

Thanks all, but I couldn't resist adding the latest pano. It was a 12 shot hand-held panorama from Icy Strait.
One tip if do try hand-held is to always shoot in vertical and add info on each end. I know most say to overlap at least 30%, I find about 50% works best when hand-held and lots of small details. Just my opinion though. The image on this site shows darker than what I see on my screen.

I returned home from a Princess cruise to Alaska over the weekend. The weather was pretty terrible the entire trip but I'm going through the images. Here are a few that I've processed so far.
