Picture of the day - July 10, 2008

Summertime in Alaska

A beautiful scene featuring a summer day in Alaska.
Photo courtesy of Tim Herbert.

Our northernmost state can be quite frigid and unforgiving in the wintertime, but during its short summer the Alaskan landscape comes alive with color that strikes an exquisite contrast with the snow-covered mountains and glaciers in the distance. It takes a hardy soul indeed to live so close to the top of the world, but many do - and they like it just fine. And with scenes like this, it's easy to see why.

Photographer Tim Herbert spent almost two weeks in Alaska in June, and this is just one of the stunning images he managed to come away with. You can enjoy many more of them by visiting his gallery.
