Juneau--Alaska's Capital City
 
It's been years (easily) since I've posted a thread, for whatever reason. But, I think I'd like to try getting back into the game of doing it. Bear with me if there are any technical difficulties.

Without further ado, I bring to you a city not commonly seen on here: Juneau. This incredible little place of 32,000 packs a punch. It's a city where urban meets a vast (mind-blowing if you will) wilderness.

All photos were taken by me in 2012/2013. Hope you enjoyed!

Thanks for these pictures from Juneau and its surroundings. Enjoyed.

Very nice natural scenery. The pics of the three bears is lovely! I´ve never seen pics of Juneau. Beautiful as the whole state of Alaska!

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.:tup:

Very interesting. Thanks.

A black bear once ran across the highway in front of me, just like that. Except it was in Pennsylvania.

Simply beautiful work of a beautiful city in a beautiful state.

Thank you!:)

I don't think I've seen a thread on Juneau before. Looks pretty small but interesting.

Groninger Sep 16, 2013 4:03 PM

Small indeed, but the third largest in Alaska. As far as cities here concerned, this one's done right.

Evergrey Sep 16, 2013 4:19 PM

Fascinating photos.

Beedok Sep 16, 2013 4:26 PM

Pretty good downtown for it's size.

giovanni sasso Sep 16, 2013 5:24 PM

Too cool.

DetroitSky Sep 16, 2013 9:45 PM

Nice photos! Juneau, and Alaska in general, has interested me for a while. Thanks for posting!

Derek Sep 16, 2013 9:50 PM

Wow, I'd love to get there some day soon.

Thats what she said......... :haha:

Very intriguing town. Never seen much from Alaska. Post some more.

Thundertubs Sep 17, 2013 12:13 AM

Awesome!! I'd love to live in a city with that level of wilderness right there.

Yankee Sep 17, 2013 6:46 AM

Amazing! I think what's possibly even more amazing is that this is a a state capital that is NOT connected to the rest of the continent by road. How insane is that.

Groninger Sep 18, 2013 2:45 PM

For years now, I've enjoyed much of your (and by your I mean just about everyone who has commented on the thread) photography on here quietly. I'm honored to receive such praise. It means a lot.

ShooFlyPie Sep 18, 2013 3:00 PM

Amazing thread!

Standing on the edge of those cliffs would make me shit a brick.

mSeattle Sep 18, 2013 7:44 PM

I'd love to visit! Those mountains rising up right from town is so cool! It's more extreme than even Vancouver.
