2012 Golden Princess Cruise To Alaska

Hello,
This gallery is dedicated to friends and family but it is also to camera fans at large. Please click on the individual thumbnail photo to make larger and kindly leave me a comment for my efforts if so desire. I feel my attempt for sharing these vacation photos has been rewarded via your time spent at this gallery. I am only an amateur photographer and I am aware of my substandard descriptions in English but I tried. I have been using digital camera gear for couple of years. Currently, I am using the Micro Four Thirds system, a Panasonic GH2 with the 14-140mm zoom lens. It is lightweight for travel and quite flexible for my need. Majority of the photos were shot during sudden encounters. Many times I was roaming on the Golden Princess cruise ship with no one or few people present, shooting through the window in the moving train, aboard a small harbor tour boat that rocked like in a musical rock concert, from my seat in a fast moving bus or on the airline through thick plastic windows. Good or bad I tried and I delivered the pictures. I work with Lightroom 4 and Photoshop 5 for post processing raw digital files. Many of the photos were of family fun shots by my wife, Diana, and many were my responds to a scene outside the balcony of our stateroom. I welcome your constructive comments. Thank you for your time and have a GREAT DAY.
Sincerely,
Min Mar – a life-long camera fan

Top deck #17... light rain - wet everywhere. There are only two people in the hot tub and me with my camera aiming toward the rear of the ship.

A cool and impressive scenery for me who lives in the dry Southwest desert region of the U.S.A.

There's the cable car going up to the top of the mountain but we did not left our ship. We would not be able to see much in the the cloud covered top anyway. Juneau is half within the waterfront and the other half on the edge of these mountains... Very strange and it's not a large city as I expected. This is the capital of Alaska, U.S.A.

One of the many fjords running from the top of the high mountain emptied into the Inside Passage. The picture was shot with a medium telephoto lens viewed from our balcony on the #10 deck.
