Weekend Fishing Trip.

We have had a busy start of summer and have not had much time to get out and play. So when one of our past duck hunters, Andy, sent an email he was going to be in Fairbanks for work and had some extra time we jumped at the opportunity to get out and fish. We headed to Valdez to see if we could find some flat fish.

In the end, mission accomplished. We caught a lot of small 10-15 lbs fish that we released and found the big boys in another location. The biggest tipped the scale at 160 lbs, a new personal best for me. We ended up seeing a bunch of whales, puffins and dale porpoises. We had a great trip! Here are a few pics.

Halibut……

Andy, one of our hunters from 3 years ago, was up in Fairbanks for some work. So we took off for the weekend to Valdez to try to catch a few halibut. I think we did the job! This is a couple of quick pictures. I will post more in a couple of days. The big one tipped the scale at 160 lbs.

There are a few sandhill cranes left here in Fairbanks. Most are moving out for the breeding grounds, these pictures are from yesterday. This one is still trying to get a little before the flight north.

Alaska, Last Four Days of Photos. Minus the ducks.

I have been an Alaska resident for a while now and I have found that I have started to take this great state a little too much for granted. Sitting in the truck driving across this state regularly I find myself more worried about getting somewhere than stopping and looking at what I am going by, so this weekend when Diana and I needed to make a trip to Valdez from our home in Fairbanks we stopped. We stopped and got back to my routes of photography. I wanted to share what I came up within 4 days, 2 of which I only took a couple of photos due to a good amount of rain.

To me this is why you visit Alaska. If there is something inside of you that has to see the best mother nature offers make a trip once in your life to the far north. This is 12 of my favorite photos from the trip, minus the duck photos.

Valdez Trip Photos

Just got back from a trip to Valdez. We did a bunch of photography while driving down and while we were down there. The birds are moving north quickly now. The little ponds are thawed and starting to come to come to life. All the big water is still frozen solid. The birds are staging in Valdez big time, lots of sea ducks around, harlequin are in big time along with scoter and old squaw. Also got some nice pictures of gadwalls while there.

Well it is that time of the year. The wigeon had attitude this morning and wanted some action from the ladies. I have a cool video to post later, but do not have time to edit right now. Here are a few of the images I took this morning. Light still kind of sucked. It is suppose to be sunny tomorrow finally, you know where I will be!

Short Video Project

We had this idea for a while and just finally did it with the pictures I took this morning. I end up taking a few hundred pictures every time I go out and have good subjects, so what to do with them all? Well here is a series of 458 photos. Okay I know you are thinking I do not want to watch 458 photos Tim took this morning. The video is only 1 minute long, so watch this and let me know what you think. I think it is kind of cool stop motion type of style to it.

As a side note, these images have not been edited at all, I just took them from raw and made them small enough for a HD video, so exposures and color are a little off. Email and let me know what you think!
