ALASKA BY BANKS

The AWE Factor

Alaska still surprises me.

I've called Alaska home for more than forty years.

Three years ago I picked up a camera again.

Now I'd like to share the people, places, wildlife, and unexpected moments that continue to surprise me.

Let’s Begin...

A whale's tail rising above water during sunset or sunrise, with golden light reflecting on the water.

A Few of my Favorites

An eagle perched on a weathered wooden post, with a blurred background of trees and structures.
A brown bear standing in a shallow stream with dark green foliage in the background, illuminated by a light source.
A landscape scene with a dense forest of evergreen trees in the foreground, rolling hills and mountains in the background, and a sky filled with thick, dark clouds and patches of sunlight peeking through.
