The book can be found on Amazon. If you like totem poles or are curious about them, please check it out. Thank you.

Photowhoa overlays

There are lots of add ons and overlays that photographers can use to enhance/chance their pictures. One company that I have ordered a few things thru is “Photowhoa”. I am pleased with the results of the pictures. The overlays work easy and look good.

Here are a few pictures that I just did using overlays. SONY DSC

I added the colored reflection and the laser lights.

I added the snow falling, and the sparkler.

Check them out, they also have really good customer service.

Our newest ebook is ready

So living in a tourist town, Ketchikan Alaska, we receive many cruise ships almost every day from May until September. As a local photographer we have amassed many hundreds of pictures of cruise ships coming and leaving the area. So we created a ebook on some of them. This book displays pictures of over 25 ships, and provides some info on each ship. It’s on Amazon at:

Also we wrote a brief article awhile back on some of the ships, published in May 2018.

Anchorage Alaska

When someone mentions “Anchorage”, what thoughts go through your mind? Cold? Dark? Depressing? Igloos? Eskimos? Dog sleds? We just spent a week there, as we had some appointments that we needed to take care of. This was not our first time there, We have visited Alaska’s largest city many times over the past 19 years. For the most part, Anchorage is like many cities in the lower 48 states. It has fast food, it has some crime, it has some places that aren’t the best to travel after dark or alone. But it has so much more. Yes it receives snow some during the winters. In fact it snowed off and on for two days while we were there. They do not have 6 months of darkness, in fact there is no where in Alaska, that is true. Yes they have extended daylight in spring and summer, and decreased sunlight during the fall and winter. They have beautiful sunsets, if you know where to look. This was before sunset

This was as the sun was setting.

Anchorage has a lot to offer, during any season of the year. It is the hub of Alaska and many flights start or end there. It’s the city that is most visited when someone talks of Alaska. It is not Alaska’s capital, Juneau is, which is in the SE part of the state. If your travels give you the chance to spend time or visit Anchorage, take it, it’s a place on many people’s bucket lists.
