Lupine wildflowers, Kodiak Island. Canon 5D Mark II, 16-35mm f/2.8L (16mm) 1/40 sec @ f/13, ISO 100
The town of Kodiak, situated on Kodiak Island’s east side is flanked by a large hill that rises quickly behind the small community. Along this hillside grows some very happy wildflowers that pop in color on a sunny summer morning. This view looks southward from the town at the convoluted shores of the expansive island, the second largest island in the U.S., behind the Big Island of Hawaii. Lupine wildflowers are early bloomers in Alaska’s interior, and are going to seed at the time that the lupine in Kodiak are in full swing.
