Alaska 1
DESCRIPTION
These photographs are a small selection from a series taken during Merriam's travels throughout Alaska in July 2016. Journeying between Denali and Wrangell across St. Alias National Park, the terrain spiked Merriam's interested and exploration of portrait landscapes. The almost painterly effect of these landscapes look dream-like.
