The UFO in the last pic was a nice touch.

Have a friend whose husband is a pilot so she travels for free.

She went to Alaska last weekend just to view the light. (Her bucket list) She loved it.

The ones with the ice holes look like they can from another planet. They are all spectacular.

Outstanding pix, thank you! I worked on a RCCL cruise ship for quite a while and although we were up in the Norway and Russian areas many times, I never saw Borealis, which was somewhat disappointing. We were in the Baltic Sea, not Murmansk or any very Northern latitudes. Plus it was July/Aug and maybe they are rare(r) during those months.

Thanks for sharing these beautiful images. The range with the roses and pinks are far more beautiful than the green (jmpo); regardless of color, all are certainly a sight to
behold!

Aurora Borealis sounds like the name of a female character in a romance novel. She looks like actress Megan Fox, likes long walks on the beach, and likes to dress in dark purple velvet.

I worked on the North Slope of Alaska for 26 years. Some of the Auroral displays I personally witnessed are seared into my memory. That far north (70* Latitude) the Aurora is uniformly green - there are no colors until father south.

Fun fact: the Trans-Alaska Pipeline has special grounding circuits buried beneath it to keep the voltage produced by the Aurora from affecting the electronics that are attached to it. It acts as an 800 mile long antenna when the Lights are on display.

Beautiful. We used to see these more often when we lived more North.
