Soft pastel hues of sunlight shift from pink to light blue up from the horizon. The mountains are hazy and out of focus, bathed in the dawn light. Trees and smaller buildings are visable in the foreground, with a small plume of exhaust that can be seen left of center of the pic.

Hazy smog clouds and ice fog glint of gold by reflecting the light from the sunrise. A bus can be see approaching a roundavout and several other cars are headed up the hill. The ice fog casts distortions across the trees on the left of the pic.

Home sick this afternoon, so instead of an after work Friday mountain view I am posting a pic I took on Monday morning but forgot to post.

Heavy gray clouds dominate the sky with somber tones. In contrast, the waning sunlight highlights the mountains in the middle. Low clouds can be seen around the base of the mountain on the right

After work Friday Blueskies. Honestly feel like my poor photography skills and phone camera do these vistas no justice.

A molten orange sunrise over the mountains, highlighted with pastel orange and pink hues reflected off of the clouds above. Some of the clouds are dark enough to contrast a darker color compared to the lighter clouds. The effect of the sunrise completely blacks out a portion of the foreground, with only the mountains in the relief. Needed this view this morning

Heavy gray clouds smother the mountains, that are barely backlit by the sunrise. A vast swath of snow covered forest can be seen in the foreground.

Low, pale orange hues from sunset highlight the mountains with a pale grey-blue sky overhead. Standing quiet and clear in the foreground are snow covered trees and fields.

Ominous dark clouds dominate the sky, while rays of sunlight break through and highlight the mountains. In stark relief, the forested terrain creates a border with the mountains.

Hazy grey clouds are highlighted by the sunrise, with the mountains a somber blue hue below them. Snow covered trees provide a contrast in the foreground. An airplane can barely be seen, on approach to land.

Similar to the prior pic, but taken of the mountain to the right of the prior pic. Similar snow covered forest in the foreground, and a small hill on the right is visible.

The sun shining through the clouds, illuminating the mountains. Contrasting with the sky, the foreground is darkened snow covered land. I really like the colors of the sun in the sky on this one.

The sun setting is a molten ball of fire dominating the sky. The halo of a sundog can be seem on the left, just below a small plane in the sky. Mountains are barely visible in a haze near the sundog. Sparse trees and snow covered fields dominate the foreground, with small hills to the right of the sun.

Heavy clouds over the mountains, with hazy layers of clouds around the mountain base. The noon sun can be seen shining bright through the top layer of clouds. Snow covered trees and sparse buildings can be seen in the foreground

The low glowing molten orb that is the sun clings to the horizon. Scant trees and snowdrifts are highlighted by the last of day's light. High, thin clouds in the sky provide a minor contrast to the pale sky. The smallest cabin you have ever seen is partially visible on the right side of the pic.

End of my work week due to holidays and have a break for a bit. This pic is from Monday, Merry Xmas, Happy Hanuka, Joyous Kwanza and Happy Holidays to cover the other ones I am unable to remember. Take care of yourselves and those around you.

Orange hazy skies over snowy landscape. Minor clouds near the horizon, with a strange trail of cloud vapor zig zagging above  like it was pulled by something.

Sharp warm sunlight glows through layered clouds over the mountains. Vapor from buildings can be seen above the forested land.

The prior pic, but shifted to the right a little. This puts the setting sun directly behind a peak, and creates a cascade of light compressed between the mountains and the clouds

Snow fall obscured the mountains today, so this is from earlier in the week.

All the snow and clouds made for no good picture moments after work today. So have a pic from earlier in the work week.

Hazy, cloudy dawn light filtering over the mountains. Glare halo in the center of the pic adds a purplish visual artifact in line with the central peak. Buildings to the left and right jave exhaust plumes that taper off quickly, indicating how cold it is outside.

A hazy orange glow from dawn backlights the mountains. The skies are clear with only the slightest hint of clouds around the mountain peaks. In the foreground, exhaust can be seen billowing from a building in the center. Other building lights can also be seen. Its -22F today, and while that was the norm a decade ago, its super cold compared to the 26F above it was last week.

Molten aunlight arcs over the upper left of the pic, highlighting the mountains. Hills to the right create a contrasting dakness, hiding the sun. Geist road and its various buildings can be seen between the hills and the field of snow in the foreground. Dont be too harsh with me for the glare from the office window that can be seen lol

Golden sunlight seeps out over the mountains, cordoned off by dark clouds above. Also adding contrast is the dark green anow covered forest in the foreground

Layered clouds with the sunlight bleeding through them highlight the mountain peaks. Forested land in the foreground is covered in snow and a lone water tower can be seen in the middle of the treea.

The light of the rising sun seeps through the clouds. The mountains are barely visible on the  right of the pic, blending into the clouds the further left one looks. Forested land in the foreground provides a darker contrast with the higher layer of clouds in the sky and their subtle hued backlight. I am rambling now, need more coffee, especially as the view this morning is full of dark clouds and snow.

A moose, staring at my as I approached work from the lower campus parking lot at UAF. It was maybe 10 feet away from me at the time the picture was taken.

@climatologist49.bsky.social I dont think I ever shared this moose pic before. It was taken during the pandemic. I was one of the required workers on campus and almost didn't see it. Figured I would share :)

Thick clouds above and forested land below create a corridor of light that is broken only by the mountains. The hues of sunset are pale, especially compared to the darkened clouds above.

Clear cold skies tinted in a peach colored hue by the setting sun. Clouds cling close to the mountains in a haze, while the snow blankets the forest in the foreground

At the apogee of the day, noon time sunlight filters through cloudy skies. The mountains are highlighted in stark relief to the hills and forested land in the foreground. The clouds appear filtered, with the sun shing through. Other clouds near the mountains are more solid looking.
