Aug. 5, 2017, 5:30AM, the air was dead calm, a fog hung over the river valley as the whistle of an Alaska Rail train echoed through the valley below. I arrived at the overlook about a mile south of Talkeetna a few minutes before sunrise to setup my camera and the silence was amazing. The show that God put on over the next few minutes had me in awe of His handiwork. I could hardly take my eyes off of the scene long enough to shoot my photos. The clouds literally exploded in hues of orange. The sides of the mountains were aflame in Alpen Glow as the sun peeked over the horizon. This is one of the largest photos of Denali that I shot during our Alaska tour.The original un-cropped version of this panorama consists of 39 individual HDR 42 mega-pixel images shot with Sony a7Rii at f-16, bracketed 1/4, 1/150th, & 1.0 seconds and ISO 200 using a 380mm lens yielding an image 62 x 146.

Denali View Point, Near Talkeetna

United States

Aug. 9, 2017, 4:36AM. My friend Bill and I had woke up at 2:30AM to drive the 30 miles from Teklanika River Campground to Stony Hill Overlook. The evening before we had consulted GPS data and determined the just past full moon would be nearly over the top of Mt. Denali at sunrise. At the campground we had overcast skies but we decided to go anyway trusting the Lord would give us clear skies at Stony Pass. While the scene He painted for us when we arrived at Stony Pass wasn't the perfectly clear skies I had envisioned in my head, what He gave us was beyond anything I could have imagined. As the sun neared the horizon the Alpen Glow painted the clouds and mountains with hues of pinks to orange while the nearly full moon hung suspended above the peaks. The light of the Alpen Glow reflected into the valley below Stony Pass illuminating the tundra, that was just starting to show signs of fall colors, intensifying the colors of the tundra foliage.The original un-cropped version of this panorama consists of 12 individual HDR 42 mega-pixel images shot with Sony a7Rii at f-11, bracketed .4, 1/10th, & 1.6 seconds and ISO 100 using a 100mm lens yielding an image 39 x 70.

Jan.. 11, 2019. 11:30 PM. -- Before we departed on our trip to Australia and New Zealand I had done extensive planning for this photo. Using Photo Pills I determined that it should be possible to find a location near the church that would allow me to have the Southern Cross, which is part of the southern Milky Way, directly above the church. Using my Gigapan to capture a wide sky view I had also planned to include the Magellanic Clouds. The day we arrived we went out to the church's location around 5pm and I fired up the Photo Pills app on my phone and found the location which would give the correct location to set up my camera. Then about 10pm we went back and I carried my equipment to that location and set it waiting for Moon to set at 11pm.
