Six-Years Ago (12-September-2009) — Canada

Gone to See North America Road Trip. Day 22: Anchorage to Burwash Landing on the Alaska-Canada Highway. Yukon, Canada.

Rather taking the Alaska Marine Highway ferry back, I decided to drive the Alaska-Canada highway. The summer travel season was over so there was very little traffic on the highway. I spent the night at a RV spot in Burwash Landing along Lake Kluane. Some surrealistic photo art with a derelict boat along the shore.

Three-Years Ago (11-September-2012) — Belgium

Gone to see Europe. Semester at Sea. Fall 2012 Semester Voyage on the MV Explorer. Day 19: Antwerp and Brussels, Belgium.

Sunrise and Sunset in Antwerp and some random images in Brussels. At one point I was chased away from a chocolate shop for trying to take a picture of their window display. Belgium Waffles and the famous Manneken Pis bronze statue.

Six-Years Ago (11-September-2009) — Alaska

Gone to See North America Road Trip. Day 21: Alaska Railroad – Anchorage to Spencer Glacier. (Day 7: Nikonians ANPAT 9).

The  group took Alaska Railroad train for a day trip to the Spencer Glacier in the Chugach National Forest.  The glacier is only accessible as a “whistle stop” on the train line.  A (sort of) time-lapse video of  images from the day including Albert’s size 13 boot.  A bit confusing and jerky because I was using two different cameras and lenses.

Three-Years Ago (10-September-2012) — Belgium

Gone to see Europe. Semester at Sea. Fall 2012 Semester Voyage on the MV Explorer. Day 18: Brussels Field Trip.

After the MV Explorer docked in Antwerp, I joined the Field trip to Brussels which included a meeting with the European Union/European Commission on the Environment. During the day I took lots of pictures of Brussels, the Food, Brussel Sprouts, Statues, and Students on the Field Trip. If you get through some or all of these albums great. I am having a hard time picking which are the best images
