Goddess Of Dawn

Alaska Aurora Photography

An intense, once-in-a-lifetime pink and violet curtain cascades down the eastern morning sky, the Big Dipper standing watch as it blankets the snow-capped Western Chugach Mountains and reflects in the cold clear river below. The aurora's name — Dawn's Goddess — could not be more perfectly earned by this extraordinary display.
