Photography-Life in Alaska-Random Thoughts
Photography highlighting Alaska, the most beautiful place on earth.
Yes, we did! It's been more than a month since we've had any decent Aurora here in Anchorage, so it was nice to look out the window at 10:30 pm last night and see a display starting. Got all geared up and outside just in time for a pretty good show that only lasted about 15 minutes. It never got really strong, and quickly died down to just a faint cloud of aurora hinting that bigger and better things might be coming, but no, it wasn't to be. I gave up at 2:30 am.
Another beautiful sunrise on the Alaska Range this morning.
Nice to see a Gray Jay in the backyard this afternoon. They've been pretty rare this winter.
Sunrise on Denali.

We really haven't had any snow to speak of since October. In the Anchorage area, there hasn't been enough snow to set track at the cross-country ski areas all winter and it's been driving us nuts. Hopefully, that ended last night! We got a good 6" up here in Bear Valley, and today it's just gorgeous. A winter wonderland. Now we pray that this doesn't immediately melt like the few snowfalls we've had this winter.
