One of my favorite shots going up into the Brooks Range. The Brooks Range is north of the Arctic Circle and north of the tree line. I especially like the pure white clouds in the really clean air. Clouds coming up over the mountains are always exciting. You never know what to expect.

It is well known that we Portuguese once sailed the seven seas searching for new lands, wealth and adventures.
We were brave in those days and gave the world new worlds!
Luckily I don’t have to sail the big oceans on a small ship to sea the wonders of our world …
No Sir, I just need to check with Mr. Tom, the finest host there is, for a trip around the world with SKY WATCH TOURS and with a click here, a click there I am quickly in the USA, England, Brazil, Italy, China, Australia, Finland … well, everywhere.
And on each stop I come to see a little marvel of our world under a great sky!
Hope you can come and see my piece of the sky at lenses & visions
Wow. Impressive photography. I think this is going to be the best Sky Watch Friday yet. The things I have seen are very encouraging and your photography is spot on.
I really admire your photography skills and your critical eye for composition, lighting and texture.

I try something different entirely. I make a comment without cutting & pasting! How about that! A true original!
Excellent image and I very much recommend to see in full size!
For me it tops the list so far!
Cheers, Klaus

I have to admit, the Brooks range is not the first thing I expected to see on a Texas blog!
It's a very nice photo and makes me nostalgic for my own Alaskan trip a few years ago.
awesome as always.
Troy, magnificent as always! I love the contors of the slopes and the colors in the grass/moss and rocks. Breath-takingly blue sky too!
What a beautiful scene
It looks as though the clouds are flowing down the mountains!
Beautiful view. Great shot.
Did you use special lens?
Almost put me to sleep it was so relaxing. Great SWF entry. Pappy
Wonderful gorgeous view. I love it.
Beautiful! Beauty-full!
Wow! This one is fabulous...did you do any adjusting to the sky color.
That is such an impressive sight.
Beautiful.

For once, mountain is at the same level as clouds! Nice shot, so refresching!
Beautiful photo!
Everytime I look at one of you Arctic photos I am in awe of the trip and your chronicling of it ...

Very nice - looked a bit like very far north in Norway.
The enlargement suggested an interesting geology.
This is so nice:) You have a really great Sky watch post this week!
WOW those colors are so rich! That would make a beautiful painting!
How lucky you are to see it and to share it with us!
Have a nice weekend.

Wow! That is so beautiful. I love the drama of the sky and all the contrasting colors and textures.
Perfection!

Another beauty, Troy and Martha! As I've said before, your excellent images put you right there on the spot. It's as if I were standing there too, watching you take it!
Hope your fourth is a great weekend.
Fantastic Shot!!
Love the 3D effect of this shot. Great sky contrasts with the mountain.
Your outdoor photos always seem to capture all the best - the surroundings, the sky, etc.
Troy: What a beautiful landscape with all you captured here.
The colros in the sky remind me of some pictures of the ocean. So many shades in one picture. Incredible. And the white clouds to set it off. Very nice!
