Photography-Life in Alaska-Random Thoughts
Photography highlighting Alaska, the most beautiful place on earth.
Just crazy! The aurora was so strong early last night that it was showing off in spite of fairly bright blue skies during the sunset starting around 10:30 pm. Clouds kept moving in and out, and she never got very high off the horizon, but this was the brightest sky I've ever seen the aurora visible in.
Sun setting to the west, Denali completely visible on the horizon and aurora to the northeast.
Clouds picking up the reds of sunset and city lights.
She showed up again early this morning around 12:30 am and was very active until she started to fade around 3 am, which is when I gave up. A hard aurora to shoot as it was really black compared to the full-moon aurora display from a couple of weeks ago. Tight bands of intense color and brightness compared to the background. I do have to admit it's kinda nice shooting the aurora when it's 35ยบ above!
The show tonight at 10:35pm.
A little treat this morning for our backyard bunny. I'm sure he's had a busy day.
I'm sure I just cursed it, but it's been absolutely gorgeous for a very long stretch. Loving it!
