Northern Lights glowing on horizon with star trails, Settlers Cove State Park, Ketchikan, Alaska, USA
An aurora, sometimes referred to as a polar lights or northern lights, is a natural light display in the sky, predominantly seen in the high latitude regions. Auroras are produced when the magnetosphere is sufficiently disturbed by the solar wind that the trajectories of charged particles in both solar wind and magnetospheric plasma, mainly in the form of electrons and protons, precipitate them into the upper atmosphere, where their energy is lost. The resulting ionization and excitation of atmospheric constituents emits light of varying color and complexity

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the ethereal beauty of the Northern Lights as they dance across the horizon, illuminating the night sky above Settlers Cove State Park in Ketchikan, Alaska. The mesmerizing display of vibrant colors and swirling patterns is a natural phenomenon known as an aurora, also referred to as polar lights or northern lights. The enchanting spectacle occurs primarily in high latitude regions when charged particles from the solar wind interact with Earth's magnetosphere. As these particles collide with atmospheric constituents, such as electrons and protons, they emit light of varying hues and intricacy. In this silhouette image devoid of human presence, nature takes center stage. The star trails streaking across the moody sky add a sense of motion and time passing by. It's a reminder that even amidst our busy lives, there are moments where we can pause and marvel at the wonders unfolding above us. Photographed by Danita Delimont for Fine Art Storehouse, this print allows you to bring home a piece of Alaskan magic. Whether displayed in your living room or office space, it serves as a constant reminder of nature's awe-inspiring power and its ability to create breathtaking scenes that leave us humbled and inspired.
