Decided to take some images of the Anchorage Fur Rendezvous World Championship Sled Dog Race. Love getting shots of the lead dogs in mushing events. Had to settle in a good spot early.

I love photographing dogs. I wanted to photograph the 2010 Fur Rondy Dog Races, but did not want to fight the downtown crowds where they start. The race winds through Anchorage’s trail system for 25 miles so I hiked down to a spot on the trail and set up. Fortunately, I had all my arctic gear on or I would have froze. Photographing snow can be challenging depending on the lighting conditions.
