I'm so glad you enjoyed my "most magical Summer". I lived in AK from 1974-1985, in Whittier, briefly in Anchorage (whenever it was time to have a baby :-) - Wasilla and Palmer. Loved it!

This really is a fantastic set, I really enjoyed them all.

I also lived in Alaska; from 1965 to 1994 mostly in Anchorage & Wasilla/Houston but also in Cordova, Juneau, Fairbanks & Anchor Point.

I took the liberty of playing with one of your pictures that I enjoyed the most:

I use an old obsolete program; here’s what I did to it:
Gamma - 90/100
Saturation + 110/100
Contrast + 107/100
Hue 6/360 towards blue
Sharpen 1/16
