This was once the towering central hoist, running ore carts up and down the mountain for the Treadwell Mining Complex in Douglas, Alaska. Early in the Twentieth Century, the mines here operated twenty-four hours a day, except for Christmas and the Fourth of July. Today, the crumbling walls stand as a mute reminder that the works of Man will one day crumble to dust. This is also available in a monochromatic version.

I am a long-time Alaskan, having lived here since 1970. I am retired from state service, after working for the Alaska Department of Corrections for twenty years. In my spare time, I take pictures. I have enjoyed photography since junior high, and I have an extensive photo library. I am working to turn my pictures into an income source to supplement my retirement. My photos include landscapes, nature photos, and abstracts. I have a particular fondness for shooting abandoned places or objects. Subjects range from Southeast Alaska to Interior Alaska, and the stretch of Canada in between. I retain the rights to all images I have posted here.
