Then it's definitely not for me. The Greek waters sometimes feel too cold to me, I'm a total wuss when it comes to the water temperature.

Might be common, but I only lived in hot climates before moving here, so Alaska is the first I've ever seen it.
Here is just a late morning sunrise. I think the sun was just peeking over the mountains and lighting up my neighborhood. It was around 10 A.M., which is about normal sunrise time this stage of the year in Anchorage. Moments like this are why I'm happy to carry a camera around with me everywhere. |
WOW, WOW, WOW! Beautiful pictures, thank you so much for sharing!
In that light your area seems almost enchanted... Amazing!
