Sunrise over the Alaska Range
 


Alaska Range - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Why am I interested in going to work in Alaska? See the above picture for just one reason. How can one be "logical" about a career future when you long to fly in such beauty and splendor?

You nailed it! Great photo!

It's also nice that you can sleep in and still catch the sunrise this time of year :)

That's as close to God and Holiness as I can get! Beautiful shot, wish I had been there.

Awesome photo! If only that contrail wasn't there, probably the only way to make it even better.

I don't know - I think the contrail makes it even more perfect for APC! :)

Words generally are not my thing but I think this photo tells a story and the contrail is important to that story. To me the contrail shows that other people were experiencing the same sunrise that I was experiencing but in a completely different way.

The one way I think this picture would be better is without the lens flare problem (greenish looking blob). Need to Photoshop that out before I print it for my wall.

Unfortunately I woke up at 2am for a 3am show to get this shot.

Alaska reminds me of Sarah Palin now.

Hopefully we can discuss the beauty of Alaska and the joys of flying while avoiding political subjects that cause people to become ornery.
