Autumn in Alaska is beyond beautiful. It's a very
short season. But if you are lucky to catch it, you'll be rewarded with
overwhelmingly vibrant colors, in a massive scale! The layers of
colors in front of you make the autumn in Alaska quite unique. You'd
have blue mountains with glaciers and white clouds at far; and then
bright yellow, orange leaves come in waves through distance all the way
to the trees right in front of you... The red leaves grow on low
bushes, all over the hills. When you look closer, they are right above
the ground, but glow with bright red color.
What
I've learned over the years is that the autumn beauty is very difficult
to capture and present. It's an art to find the unique rhythm from the
overwhelming colors, and yet, the overwhelming colorfulness is the
essence of the autumn beauty...
On
this trip, I've been telling myself to forget about the pictures,
simply take it all in and live the moment - my photographs will never be
able to do justice to the true beauty of the autumn in Alaska!
