Denali (Mt McKinley) the tallest peak in North America. Taken near Talkeetna, Alaska. Hubby and I put the kids in the car for a 2+ hour drive to fish for salmon and photograph Denali. It was a successful trip!

This SO beautiful! Alaska is the next place on our shortest list of places we HAVE to go. This makes me want to go even more. You are so very lucky to have scenery like this any time you want. We live for our one week-or-so a year we head to the Rockies and savor every second of it.

Excellent photography!

Wonderful shot. Always wanted to head up there as I heard the backpacking is great and the scenery is wonderful. This picture just makes me want to make the trip even more.

Fantastic photo - love the clarity and crispness of this image. The trees in the foreground really provide some excellent depth to the photo. Gave it a 7 during the challenge for the shear quality of the image, but it really doesn't scream rural to me - rather is would likely win in a remote or natural landscape.

Just an all 'round spectacular and excellent panoramic mountainous landscape. I have this thing that tells me to be brutally honest with my teammates.......tell me how this is rural.

First glance I see trees & clouds and I'm thinking ok nice colors, nice sharpness good exposure but not very interesting. Then I read the title "DENALI." Hey, isn't that a mountain? D'OH! There's a mountain back there. Wow. Excellent.

Wow - how pretty. What a gorgeous view. I love the snow capped mountain against the sky. Great contrast with the trees too. Magnificent vista.

Looks like a beautiful spot. I would have liked too see a less centered composition.

Whites a bit too bright and other colors a bit washed out. Nice scenery though. All just MHO

Excellent capture of Denali. From what location did you shoot this? Talkeetna? Denali National Park?
