Photo Of The Day – Alluring Bay

Title: Alluring Bay

Location: Baranof Island, Alaska, USA, North America

Description: The thing I love about Uncruise Adventures‘ trips is the variety of locales.

I’ve been on five trips with them in Alaska, teaching and taking photos of their boats, and it wasn’t until this last trip I was treated to the inlets and bays of Baranof Island.

The evening before we had entered the bay imaged above but the light was in our face and flat.

But in the morning, with some low clouds and fog shrouding the sun, the lighting was dramatic and delicious.

Not only that, but we had the pleasure of watching a deer decide to cross in front of our boat as it went from one side of the bay to the other.
