Lee Petersen<p>A winter night in the boreal forest near Fairbanks, Alaska. The full moon lights up the snow-covered ground, casting deep shadows from the spruce and willows. Ice crystals on the surface catch the light, sparkling in the still, cold air. This is easily one of my favorite (non-aurora) night images!</p><p><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>alaska</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/night" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>night</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a></p>

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:30AM: 30F, fair. </p><p>Sunny days really bring home the amount of light we have now. It always amazes me how quickly the darkness recedes in the spring. </p><p>Ugh. At least I get a couple hours of dark at mid-summer here. When I lived in Tok, the best we got was civil twilight if I remember correctly. Maybe nautical?
