About the Photos
Most of the photos on the drive are between 2K and 4K resolution, with the long edge about 2560 pixels or greater in length. The intent is to provide good digital photos for viewing on a high definition TV and to ensure that good prints can be made at a size of 8x12 inches. We do not want to compete with professional photographers working in Glacier Bay. These photos are not high enough quality for high-end professional use. However, best use of the panoramas, photos 601-632, are as large printed posters. Hence the resolution of the panoramas is considerably higher than the other photos on the flash drive.
The "Digital-Images" numbered 001 to 344 are arranged in a loose geographic loop. It starts at the mouth of Glacier Bay, heads north up the bay, across to the Alsek River drainage and down river to the Gulf of Alaska. From there it heads south along the outer coast of the park, and back around through Cross Sound to the mouth of Glacier Bay, with occasional jumps into the mountains.
We've tried to capture it all -- the wildlife, the glaciers and the wilderness. Putting the photos in geographical order means they may seem "all mixed up." You may have to do a little exploring on your own to find exactly what you want, but hopefully you'll make some unexpected discoveries along the way--which is what Glacier Bay is all about.
