Hey Yoselyn,

How’s life in Chile right now?

That’s for the kind words, and yes, these places are extremely beautiful. That’s all the motivation I need to go out and photograph them.

Cheers

Carl

That’s a beautiful image, Carl!
Stay off that torn muscle until it heals (you’ll need it for those winter hikes, you know - when winter comes)

Hey Guy

Thanks for the compliment, I really appreciate that from you. It was a beautiful evening.

As for the apparently ongoing debate concerning winter, this is Alaska. The seasons here are as follows:

Summer: temperatures greater than 60˚
Winter: other

I like the simple life.

I think, for now, I shall go back to my Chai Latté.

Thanks man.

Cheers

Carl

Great image Carl - I can see how the magic of Alaska has taken a hold of you.

Take care on that leg.

Hey Mark,

Thanks for the kind words. It’s a great scene, any time of the year at this place .. I hope to shoot it a good bit more before too much longer!

Yeah, AK’s got a good trip on me, particularly Wrangell St. Elias National Park - there’s simply no place like it anywhere.

The leg’s coming on a LOT better thanks. Still kinda tight, but I’m stretching it and heating it up and it’s improving .. hardly even a limp any more.

Cheers

Carl
