This was taken at the end of a short night of taking northern lights photos. You can see the lights starting to fade out over the top of the mountain. the bright lights to the left are the Anchorage city lights and an oncoming car driving down the seward Highway
The absence of the moon makes for a very dark landscape photo. Even the northern lights dacing across the tops of the mountain couldn't light the foreground enough.
The northern lights that I captured this time last year.
