My daughter and I were discussing the Alaskan cruise we went on in 2008 from Vancouver to Anchorage. I started looking at the images and wondered about post processing some of them. I had only worked on a few and displayed even less. New technology is wonderful, especially hiding the flaws of old technology. I really wrestled with some of these images.
Comments are welcomed.

Beautiful! I especially like "Glacier Bay'! Your processing is quite film-like (which I like).

I agree, new software can give an extra edge to older hardware. I haven't updated my camera in a while ("a while" being a very relative term :D ) but I keep my raw converter up-to-date...

It definitely doesn't show that you had to wrestle with some of these - so well done! :)
 
Thank you Tilman. Yes, I didn't post any those. This one is of the Mendenhal Glacier in Juneau. Rained or very heavy mist the whole time were there. It appears to be noisy, I think it is the moisture in the air that caused the problems. I have been accused of having my head in the clouds before, but this is the first time it may have been true!

You ask for it.
The cow moose, went by the house on one side, but I failed to get a good pic. I went out the back door to maybe catch a one. heard something behind me , and caught these. Taken with the Em-5 and The old OM 50mm adapted, not cropped, just re-sized for posting. We were close enough, to have a soft conversation. He just wasn't concerned, about me taking pictures. Notice the small "nubs", just above the eyes? new antlers beginning. Coming 1 year old.
And, then he just strolled off.

Thanks Steve! I rarely have seen a moose outside a zoo. Once off the road, Freeway actually, near Duluth MN. The other crossing a river when be boated to our cabin during a Canadian fishing trip. They are a large animal.
