Beautiful town. The wooden architecture and the low buildings enhance the character of a small place. Peaceful and yet beautiful setting with impressive mountain views in the background. Very well done Paul.

Hi Paul,
I know such narrow streets from old Europe as they were built long before wagons or coaches came in use. But not in wooden construction. Nice angle in the workshop. The view over the town is great, so many details and a great finish with the mountains. Wonderful clarity and colours.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hi Paul,
Excellent deep scene of this harbour town. Lots of interesting details. Street signs work well as the main focal point. And the WS is a good extra showing the steepness more clearly.

Hello Paul,
Perfect spot to capture the corner Edmonds and washburn. The mountains on the distance looks beautiful, supporting by the port view and nice housing. Colours and sharpness are well, thanks for share it Paul.

Bonsoir, cher Paul,
Une vue très réussie de Ketchikan, l'effet de perspective est particulièrement réussi. La mise en image (mise en scène, choix du thème) est excellente.
Félicitations pour cette façon de présenter la ville.
Amitiés.

Greetings Paul! Good catch on your part giving us a bird's eye view of walking down those stairs into the interesting town. The different styles of architecture are well seen in addition to those mountains in the distance. The image is laser sharp. well done!

Olá Paul, this is a great POV with a wonderful view over the roofs, church(?) and view of the mountains in the far distance. Love this yellow house and green signs at left, for some detail, giving contrast and depth to the image. The WS is a wonderful graphic perspective that could have been a good main post. Excellent couple of shots.
Cheers,
ricardo

Hi Paul
Nice POV and framing over the city with its charming wooden houses and bell tower and the harbor facing the mountains with a good sense of depth. Light and colors are also very nice.
In the WS the staircase looks quite steep.
Cheers

Hi Paul, I guess this shot doesn't need any GPS coordinates. The signs gives a pretty good idea of your location. The signs are a very good compositional element giving an introduction and lead into your image. Without it the image would be more or less flat.

Hi Paul,
I like the way you've framed Ketchikan against the Tongass Narrows. Those steep wooden stairs are so Ketchikan!! The view in the WS is even better. HLJ, Pat

Hi Paul - cute "streets", you were very lucky also to get a glimpse of the sun in one of the wettest, cloudies sopots on the planet, a long way from NZ eh?

Hello Paul,
Wonderfully captured! The composition is amazing with the roof tops of the buildings and then your eye is carried out to the mountains and then even further out to sea! Beautiful composition, well balanced, color and clarity perfect! I love your travelogue....I can't wait until my next adventure!

Take care,

Hi Paul,
What a busy junction :) These wooden stairways might be looking charming to us, but I agree they are less so for people that live there.
It is interesting to notice that the place looks busy even if there are no people to be seen around. Only the snow covered mountain tops in the background give a hint of Alaska.

Hello Paul!
Your choice of low light reveals a gorgeous palette of colors. The sea and ridges in bg add a lot of romanticism to the scene.
So beautiful!
