Green Aurora Over Lagoon Under Desert Escarpment in beneath a wind-cut desert escarpment near Fairbanks

Green Aurora Over Lagoon Under Desert Escarpment

by Tatiana Richards

Cool blue twilight washes the wind-cut desert escarpment near Fairbanks, casting deep shadows across the rocky face. Below, a glacial lagoon mirrors the vibrant green ribbons of the aurora borealis arching overhead. Soft snow falls gently, creating a hushed texture against the dark water and the stark, pale stone of the cliff. The horizon line sits low, showing the vast, cold sky above the still, reflective surface. A faint white speck of snow rests on a jagged rock edge in the foreground, at the base of the cosmic display in the immediate, frozen terrain.
