I've always heard that the Alaskan wilderness is breathtaking. This Alaskan photography tour has many dates that range from the end of June to the beginning of September. The trip is 14 days long and has a price range from $11,595 to $12,095, which covers almost all trip costs. The maximum number of people allowed on each trip is 10. The complete day-to-day itinerary is listed on the website, but here are some highlights: traveling through Denali National Park, traveling on a private yacht in Kenai Fjords,  staying overnight on the private Fox Island, and taking photos of the bears at Brooks Falls. 

Photo Of The Day

This Photo was taken by Sangeeta Dey and is the Photo Of The Day for August 24th on Outdoor Photographer. The photo was taken in a place called Cottontail Basin located in Death Valley, CA. This photo really stands out to me due to its surreal quality. At first glance, this landscape looks like it belongs on a far off planet. Dey describes the circular formations as very delicate; furthermore, she explains that this area is hard to get to without GPS coordinates. Thinking of this makes me appreciate that some places on this earth have maintained their natural beauty due to being generally inaccessible to people. The setting sun and the light blue colors in the circular formations bring a calming feeling over me. I'm going to make it a point to visit this place someday. Hopefully at sunset.
