Green Aurora Over Birch Forest at Dawn in across a wide valley floor near Whitehorse

Green Aurora Over Birch Forest at Dawn

by Marcia Robinson

A pale green band of aurora hangs low above a wide valley floor near Whitehorse, where early spring thaw has begun. The sky remains perfectly clear and deep indigo, providing a stark backdrop for the luminous ribbon. Below, snow-covered birch trees stand in deep shadow, their white bark catching faint rim light from the rising horizon. The ground is a patchwork of white snow and emerging dark earth, showing the transition of the season. Frost still rests on the lower branches, while the distant hills fade into the gloom. The texture of the snow appears soft and undisturbed, against the sharp, vertical lines of the birch trunks. A final sliver of gold light touches the top of the nearest tree.
