Watching the bison. Hayden Valley, Yellowstone National Park
The scenic route through the fabled Inside Passage to Alaska leads to Glacier Bay National Park. Here you'll find a spectacular, unspoiled labyrinth of deep fjords and dramatic glaciers plunging into the ocean, ringed by snow-capped peaks reaching to 15,000 feet -- the highest coastal mountains in the world.
The nearest highway is hundreds of miles away; a cruise ship is the easiest way to see this unspolit wonderland.
To get this shot I took two separate photos, one bright and one dark and I overlapped them when I got home. It captured what I was seeing so I was thrilled when the photo came out.

A sunrise in the west can be spectacular. This was taken along Hwy 9 on the way out to Zion National Park.
