Muktuk

Found a series of photographs from a few years ago of Alaskan natives harvesting muktuk from a young gray whale which was hit by a ship and washed up in Turnagain Arm just south of Anchorage. Muktuk is most often the skin and blubber and is a prized staple in native culture.

Nikon FM2, 50mm 1.8 Nikkor AIS lens

oh wow, this is really cool, especially in a documentary kind of way. I'd love to visit Alaska someday.
