Northern Lights

I am lucky enough that I live in Fairbanks, AK, one of the best places in the world for seeing the Aurora Borealis. I have become a little addicted to the "chase". We sometimes spend hours outside in the dark and sometimes in temperatures down to -50 to see this amazing phenomenon. And on really good nights, we get to see what you will hopefully enjoy in this photo gallery. Just to be clear, still photos don't do justice to the awe-inspring beauty of the Aurora.

My 1996 Subaru Outback, Cheryl, overlooking Olnes Pond and the Northern Lights while Venus and Jupiter overlook her. At 152,500 miles this Subaru is still getting me around Interior Alaska while I chase the Aurora in the cold, dark nights of the Alaska winter.
