I took this photo out the window of a moving train (The Alaska Railway) and I wish it was a little sharper on the focus. But I'm still glad that I got the shot. We were in Healy, Alaska for a week and this was the only day that Denali (Mt. McKinley) came out of hiding. It's overwhelming majesty can not fully be comprehended in a photo, so if you ever get the chance to see it in person, do it! Then you'll know why the locals just refer to it as "The Mountain".

Betty - What a grand place Alaska must be, you dont even have to sit still to get a good shot. Someday before I die I also want to visit Alaska, even if I have to be bitten by a hundredthousand mosquitos it will be worth it. In the mean time Thanks for sharing, I enjoy the photo. Good Shot ! Do more please.

great shot!! personally, theres a bit too much sky. i would crop a bit closer to the moutains, to make it a bit more focused on them, but not so close as to have them be the border. just a thought. good work!!

I ran your photo through a photo editer and gave it +1 of sharpening. That took care of the "little bit fuzzy" problem immediately.

What a shot...from a moving train no less. I don't know weather to believe you or not. It's so good. Framed just fine. Well, you bagged a good one. It's on my desktop right now.
