Green and Purple Aurora Over Reykjavik

by Ian Dale

Silvery winter light washes the predawn sky above the outskirts of Grandi in Reykjavik, where a dense curtain of aurora borealis hangs low against the clouds. Vibrant green ribbons interlace with deep purple bands, their edges soft where they meet the low-hanging cloud layer. Below, a wet, thawing surface mirrors the celestial display, doubling the luminous streaks in a dark, glassy reflection. Early spring moisture coats the ground, creating a seamless bridge between the cosmic light and the earth. The frozen shoreline holds the reflection steady, anchoring the floating colors in a symmetrical, mirrored composition. A jagged edge of ice reflects the brightest purple band.
