Change is ever-present in natural settings, and the landscape of Denali is no exception. Over the course of a day, flowers open and close as light plays on mountain flanks. Across the seasons, lakes and rivers freeze and thaw. And over thousands of years, glacial advances literally carve the landscape we see before us.
One way to examine the quicksilver changeable qualities of Denali is through the magic of repeat photography: photos taken of a single location at different times.
