I started this blog some 7 years ago. It has served as a great platform to share both my experiences and the photos that are the result of my ventures in Alaska’s wilderness landscape. It’s hard to believe it has been that long. Writing in this venue is an odd thing. Often, I’m not really sure who, or if anyone, is reading, since the comments are minimal. But occasionally I get feedback, so thanks to all of you who have kept in touch over the years and appreciated my posts and journeys.
My goal has been to keep the information here related to Alaska and photography, with an occasional post from photographic travels beyond Alaska. I still plan to do that, keeping a similar format, but I’ll be reducing the posts to about one a week. Instagram is where I’ll be sharing images more frequently. On that venue, you don’t need to login to view posts, and at least at this point, there is way less “junk and adds” than on Facebook. I’ll continue to feed images to Facebook, for those who wish to use that venue to stay in touch.
Follow me on Instagram for more frequent updates.
I’ve been missing your posts and pics. Now I know where to find some pictures at least. I’m not a Facebook user.
Hi Patrick … I may not always comment, but I always appreciate!!! Though I’ve never been to Alaska, my husband was born there and still owns property in the Matanuska Susitna valley. It has been our goal to get up there some day, and viewing your images and reading about your adventures keeps us in touch with that dream!! Thank you!!
Like others, I don’t always comment but always read your posts. And bought your photographing aurora book which has been very helpful over our last two (and third one coming up) aurora trips to Churchill.
Guess I’ll have to give Instagram a try.
You have an enviable life and livelihood!
Thanks and keep them coming!

Hi Patrick,
As you know, every now and then I do comment, but I always read, and always enjoy. I’ll miss the less frequent posts as I’m not on Instagram and at this point am not inclined to add yet another social media site. Maybe at some point (and you can try to convince me when we get together), but not for now. Good luck with your postings there, and please don’t forget us social-media-ludite subscribers to your blog.
I have regularly read and enjoyed your posts for well over a year and a half now. Amazing images and inspiring journeys matched with insightful and informative writing makes your blog a compelling read. Sadly I will have to make the decision to embrace technology and work out how to get on Instagram or miss out on my weekly dose of Alaska. Damn! Anyway thanks & G’day from Australia!
Cheers Jen
Hey everyone, thanks for your comments. Just to clarify, I’m not bailing on the blog posts here at all, they will just be a little less frequent. Stay tuned.
Hey Patrick, I’m a frequent Facebook viewer but infrequent commentor. Haven’t used Instagram before but will see what I can figure out.
Patrick, that’s great news!!!
OH you make me wish that I had never left Alaska. I am trying to figure out Instagram, I want to keep following.
Hi Patrick, I’m also a frequent viewer of your amazing work. I enjoy the blog very much. It’s great to see what photo adventures your up to. Keep up the good work!
