What a beautiful shot! I was born in Anchorage :-) And have never had a chance to return - yet! Thank you so much for sharing this fantastic shot of the city!
What a lovely view. Now I don't have to go!! ;) Actually, it makes me want to see it in person all the more. The natural frame you've given this with the dark greens is perfect! :)
"The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web." Pablo Picasso
Pamela, what a lovely photograph! I like the border you established with the dark greens. The sea is separated beautifully from the mountains and sky by your wonderful diagonal line (Anchorage). The clouds are just perfect floating above the mountain ridge. And you are using a nice dog icon - what more can be asked of one person? Once again, a very lovely photograph. - John
"...here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)"
