Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of a fishing boat sailing through a channel near Juneau. The photograph tilts downward to the right. The scene is viewed from an elevated perspective. A wide waterway extends from the foreground and into the distance. It meets a shoreline that bisects the image on an upward angle from right to left. In the near distance, a fishing boat sails through the channel, left-of-center. It is viewed at an angle from the side as it travels towards the right. Seagulls flock around the boat. The boat's wake ripples behind it at left. Beyond the boat, a couple of small islands stand in the distance. Mountains rise across the shoreline in the background. Clouds obscure the distant mountains at left and center. Text from negative sleeve: 2203. Alaska Trip. Across Gulf and Hawk Inlet Sept. 11, 1946. 1.
