Looking across Kachemak bay towards the Kenai mountains and their massive glaciers a field of fireweed is in full bloom. In early summer the fireweed begins to bloom from the middle of the stalk. As summer goes on each successive flower blooms just above the previous one. Working its way up. As the bloom reaches the top of the stalk the earliest blooms begin to seed and turn to cotton. Once the entire plant turns to cotton Alaskans say there are about six week until winter begins.
This is one of the only landscapes I took on my trip. Partly because I was there specifically to shoot wildlife, but mostly because we had many foggy days on our trip where the mountains weren't visible. I took this one on the last night. I rather enjoy shooting landscapes at 11:00 at night too!
