Aurora over a boreal forest near Fairbanks, early January. An unexpected geomagnetic storm lit up the sky, with temperatures around -25°F. Nothing seems to move in that cold. The air is always so quiet and still.

Vertical photograph of the aurora borealis over a boreal forest near Fairbanks, Alaska. Bright green aurora curtains and rays fill the upper two-thirds of the frame, sweeping from left to right with vertical streaks descending toward the treeline. The sky is dark with scattered stars visible between the aurora bands. The lower third shows a stand of black spruce heavily loaded with snow, their pointed tops silhouetted and lit green by the aurora glow. A snow-covered clearing is visible at the base of the trees. No people are visible.

Aurora borealis forms an unusual spiral or folded loop structure in the night sky over a snow-covered black spruce forest in Fairbanks, Alaska. Bright green curtains of aurora curl back on themselves in a circular formation at upper center, with additional ribbons extending outward to the upper right. A diffuse purple-gray glow from Fairbanks light pollution occupies the right portion of the sky. Snow-laden black spruce trees are silhouetted across the lower half of the frame, their tips reaching upward into the aurora. Stars are visible in the darker upper left portion of the sky.
