Photography-Life in Alaska-Random Thoughts
Photography highlighting Alaska, the most beautiful place on earth.
A really nice night of aurora after the Cubs clinched the World Series for the first time in generations. This display started early, around 9:15pm Alaska time and went all night. The most active display was around 1:30am, with some really nice spikes and a couple of coronas overhead.
We always wait until after November 1st to put the bird feeder back up, just in case the bears are still hanging around. 5 minutes after I put it up on the front deck, my little Nuthatch buddies were back.
The city is glowing in this wonderful sunshine. The view from Bear Valley.
Happy Halloween, everyone!
Another night of aurora hunting. The forecasts said we might get a kp8 storm, which would be the strongest forecast I've ever seen on any of my aurora apps, but sadly, that's not what happened here in Bear Valley. I could see faint aurora already around 10pm, and the clouds starting clearing out nicely. At 1am it started to grow, and I thought it just might blow up into the show we were all hoping for. Unfortunately, the clouds moved back in, and the aurora never really cranked up, so I gave up around 2:30am.
