Sunset on Marmot Island, Gulf of Alaska

Here is another photograph that was taken while I was doing fieldwork in the Gulf of Alaska in the winter of 1996. The image was scanned at 4000 ppi. The original image was very dark so I used the shadows and highlights tool to balance the tones a little better, although it is still not perfect.

I find this image very calming and like the contrast between the rather monochrome foreground and the setting sun in the background.

Cliff with snow and trees - Marmot Is., Alaska

This image was taken in the winter of 1995 on an island in the western Gulf of Alaska called Marmot Island. It was during the early days of my photography. It is quite obvious what caught my attention.

At the time I had a Canon EOS 100 and I always shot with slide Fuji ISO50-200; ocassionally ISO400. No idea what the camera settings were for this shot. I scanned this slide in at 4000 dpi and cleaned it up using the spot tool in Photoshop. I made slight adjustments to Levels and Curves and added a little sharpening. Comments welcome. Damian
