Green Purple Aurora Trails Over Colombia Night

Ribbons of green and purple light stretch horizontally across the deep indigo sky, their edges soft from a long exposure. Countless sharp stars punctuate the darkness above the horizon, visible through the exceptionally clear air. Below, a dense tropical forest rises in heavy black shapes, its canopy defined against the faint celestial glow. The ground holds wet leaves near a small, warm orange glow from a distant fire resting low in the foreground. This point of warmth sits beside the vast, cool darkness of the northern lights arching overhead. Shadows from the trees fall across the damp earth, at the base of the scene in the rainy season night.
