Tough to take killer pixels and crunch them to postage stamps.

just courious,when the thermometer reads -50 what do you do for fun?oh wait that pic of Sarah explains it,lol i have to say that was the most enjoyable post i have ever seen thanks to all of you who shared ,,, Not all parts of the state hit -50, I don't think we've hit under -20 in at least 10 years, and some years barely go sub zero in the bannana belt. Light and sound do some weird things when it gets to -40, so being out and about to enjoy it isn't a bad plan. Specially if you have a nearby cabin with a roaring wood stove

Montanacreekhunter, Those are darn nice photos. You have the basics down of good photos. The compositions are good, in focus and you held steady when you took them. Lighting conditions are the key to amazing photos. Learn to play with the f stop on the camera, it's amazing how a bit of fiddling can yield improved results. Early morning and late day flat light photos are the best. One of the advantages of being in the far North is the sun is close to the horizon for extended periods of time. Play with post photo editing, it's not hard to adjust the exposure a bit to darken the photos that are overexposed. Pretty tough to take bad photos in AK. Here are a few from a hike we did at the end of last summer. Also a reminder to me to get in shape if I plan on hiking 26 miles in a day this summer. Not very good pics, and mostly overexposed from a point and shoot that has seen much abuse and needs to be updated.

Many men go fishing all their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. - Henry David Thoreau
The best part of hunting and fishing was the thinking about going and the talking about it after you got back. - Robert Ruark

From our 3 week trip this past summer. Barwell Island Toklat River, Denali NP Mr Wolf and Marmot (the shadow is from the park shuttle bus, he trotted right past us and on up the hill to the den. Denali NP from Talkeetna Returning to Seward after fishing out to Montague Island for the Halibut and Lingcod, the Silver Salmon from near shore by Excelsior Glacier It was just as I feared, the whirlwind trip just wetted the appetite and we have to go back for more.
