David's Images of the Day Photoblog
There were several Northern Gannets following the MV Explorer. I wanted to get an image of one crossing the full moon. I took lots of pictures, but only came close a few times. Then there was the issue of whether the moon, or the bird should be in focus.

In order to get from Haines to Anchorage by road in Alaska you have to travel the Haines Highway through British Columbia, and Yukon Territory in Canada. As you pass through the Canadian border, they check to make sure you are not transporting any guns or knives. I stopped along the road several times to get panoramic images of the late summer landscape. The first two in British Columbia (probably toward Tatshenshini-Alsek Park). The third one was along the southern shore of Kluane Lake in Yukon. I spent the night at a RV park in Burwash Landing further north along the lake.
After spending the night in Jackson Hole, I started the day at Jenny Lake. It was cold out as I got some pictures of the Grand Tetons and their reflections across the lake. Later on a panorama of the Grand Tetons, and then off to Yellowstone National Park for a quick visit to see Old Faithful geyser. In the afternoon I returned back via Jackson Lake and Jenny Lake to Jackson Hole. All of the images have been re-processed current tools (Topaz JPG to RAW and Capture One Pro).
