Juneau, Alaska, USA. Standing on Mt. Roberts, looking northward up the Inside Passage. Snow-capped mountains are in the distance. The passage water has a pastel tint due to glacial silt. The contrasting light offered a challenge for me. I hope you enjoy the view!

My goodness! What a view!! Gorgeous scenery and the whole mountain range at the back looks tiny from your vantage point! What a distance you captured here!

This one is a stunner, Thad. I would say it was a perfect landscape if there were just a few major power lines running through the middle of the shot. :-)

I agree with Jimbob. The key word is breathtaking.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Looking at this wonderful shot, it seems as if I am looking at Tolkien's Anduin River with the Misty Mountains in the distance. Wow!

North looks nothing like this, I must have a problem with the reception I'm getting. Time to contact the repair department.
A spectacular view and wonderful looking landscape, Thad. Great work!
