Lupines in the land of the Midnight Sun

Famous for the almost everlasting sun in the summer, Alaska's sun illuminates the sky late into the night. When the sun does decide to go down for a few short hours, its descent is magnificent.
The lupines and the sidewalk look as if they are about to catch on fire because the sun's colors are so intense.
This photo was taken in Homer, Alaska, where the Lupines thrive during the month of July.

Beautiful Halibut Cove

Throughout my trip to Alaska I witnessed many different aspects of the state. From watching the rain pelt the puddle-filled ground to seeing parts of the sun’s rays hit the indigo water in Halibut Cove, we saw a wide array of what Mother Nature has to offer.

Now it may be because of the sun or maybe the scenery, that Halibut Cove was my absolute favorite part of my adventure through the Last Frontier.

The views of the majestic mountains, towering trees and gleaming water were all so breathtaking.
