Christian Photographers Community

Hey all.  Found this site while reading a post on another forum. 

Looking forward to sharing the beauty of God's creation we have here in Alaska, and looking forward to seeing what others have to share.

Andy - thanks for dropping in!  You're WELCOME here!!!  Come on over to the "Thoughts for the Week" folder and chat with all of us.  What part of that great state are you in?

Aha, somewhere colder (if not as wet) than us in the UK.  Welcome to CP.

Ohhhh, Andy!  What a wonderful introduction!  It's great to have you here and what a grand entrance too, with that wonderful photo!  I'm looking forward to seeing more and more of your images.

So, a great big :welcome: to you,  pull up a chair and make yourself comfy here at

Hey, Andy!  Welcome to you from Kansas!  I absolutely LOVE Alaska, and thanks so much for that wonderful Eagle photo.  Hope to see lots more of your photography.  Where in Alaska do you live?

Hey there, Andy!   :hello: I love looking at photos of Alaska.  I don't know if I'll ever get to see the beauty of your state first hand, but my daughter has.  And my sister goes there often.  I look forward to your sharing more photos.  Great to have you here.

Hello Andy Welcome to CP. I Love the photo of the Eagle, I love Eagles in any form. I have a few ceramic and pictures of them.

Welcome.  I've benn here for some time & pop in whenever i can, so it is good to see some new faces as well as old time friends here.

I just moved from Vermont, to Arizona!!  So, I'll have to get some Arizona pic's up.  My husband can no longer handle th cold.

Hello from Spudville, (Idaho) Andy!

Welcome to CP!  :welcome:

I'm not real regular around here, but if I could be, I would.  Maybe eventually.  Other priorities and health problems keep me from too much time here at this point in my life.

I saw your website and sent you an e-mail today.  Nice to know there are more Christians out there in Smug world.

Blessings, Kathleen

Welcome Andy!! 

It has been a dream of mine and my husbands to come to Alaska and see the sites!  Perhaps some day.

Welcome and enjoy our company!

Thank you all for the warm welcome!

I live in Anchorage, but get around the state as much as possible.  I try to shoot as much as possible, but family life often keeps me busy.  I've got two active boys, ages 6 and 9, and an amazing wife who is an elementary school teacher.

My favorite subject is God's creation, and yes, that does include people, so I shoot a broad variety of subject matter.

I'm always happy to answer any questions I can about Alaska, so please feel free to ask those questions!

How long have you lived in Alaska?  Was the eagle shot taken near Eagle River?  (I know there are eagles that hang out near the fire station there.)

I went on a little cruise in the Fiords and saw eagles there.  Have you gotten to shoot any calving glaciers yet? 

I'd better stop, I'm making myself homesick for Alaska!

Hello Janet.  The eagle nest was located in south Anchorage.  That year, there were two eaglets that came out of that nest.  Unfortunately, a strong wind took that tree down since then.

A friend of mine photographs the Eagle River eagles on a regular basis.  I, however, have never done it.  A lady feeds those eagles during bad cold snaps, and this activity offers the opportunity for some pretty dramatic in flight eagle photos.

I've done some landscape work of glaciers, but no calving activity.
