jamie lang photography

Last weekend I spent three days hiking in crampons and way too heavy boots too take photos of Matanuska Glacier.  The workshop was put on by Hal Gage – who I’ve taken a bunch of workshops with before – always nature / landscape workshops. I feel like a little kid again when I take these classes because I don’t have to do anything but what I want to do. If I want to stare at the ground, I can; if I want to take photos of my feet is big boots and crampons, I can. It’s refreshing for me. We stayed at Majestic Valley Wilderness Lodge which was unbelievable. I had to pinch myself to believe I was still in Alaska. The food was so incredible the entire trip was worth just the food and wine from them :)  This is a composite image of five photos stitched together; the little dots are people learning to climb the glacier with MICA Tours. It looked fun but, really, not my kind of thing. This photography class was though! I’m so glad I got to take it.  Thanks, Hal!
