Nominated for the 2006 Nature Photography Book of the Year
by the International Photography Awards.
Honorable Mention Winner!
After years of feedback and encouragement from family, friends and customers, I have published my first book of aurora photography entitled Aurora's Winter Waltz. The result is a high quality product, of which I am proud and excited to share with the world.
(front cover)
Aurora's Winter Waltz is filled with 64 pages of my best and most breathtaking images of the aurora borealis.

This beautifully done, hardbound 8 x 9 inch book makes a perfect gift

PAYMENT: For payment I accept personal checks, cashier's check and money orders. After much consideration, I decided not to accept credit cards. For a small, low volume business like Alpenglow Photo, the initial costs and monthly fees associated with credit card transactions would be significant, and would inevitably need to be recouped from you... the customer. I don't believe this is fair, and while the "old fashion" methods of payment may not be as quick as typing in a credit card number, I believe the cost savings, (not to mention extra security), are worth the minimal effort it takes to write, and cash a check. I hope you understand, as I believe this is in both of our interests. However, I am always open to hear your feedback, (Contact Mike), and if my volume of sales changes in the future, I may reconsider this current approach.
Checks should be made payable to either "Alpenglow Photo" or to "Michael Klensch".
Please mail the payment to:
Alpenglow Photo PO Box 1076 Skagway, AK 99840
All orders will be given immediate attention and will be shipped as soon as the check clears and gets posted to my account.
Thank you all for your interest in my photography, and your business.
