When I turned 26, I had lived in California for just under a year, and wanted to celebrate my birthday in a way that reflected that year of growth and what felt like a whirlwind of emotions. I ended up in Alaska for the first time, hiked a glacier, saw a moose for the first time, and took a ton of pictures. This year for my 29th birthday I ended up back in Alaska, with a chance to retrace some of my steps. The first picture (2022) here I think shows how much I've been able to grow in my photography, I did minimal edits and my edit isn't shit, the composition is significantly better, it just looks dope. All that being said I have no idea who's going to read all this so if you made it this far here's some sage advice: bears may look like you can pet them but you shouldn't. #ForeverCoasting #alaska #keepalaskawild #landscapephotography #outdoor (at Bird Point Alaska) https://www.instagram.com/p/CelhR2UOEdC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
