Wow! This was taken from Ester Dome Road in Fairbanks Alaska at about 1am on the 16th of September, 2005! Due to a particularly wicked CME interacting with our magnetosphere (with the IMF in perfect array), this is what occured! This picture was not touched up, save for a tad in contrast/brightness; you can see the stars are the normal color (white). Otherwise, this is exactly what I saw! Between the clouds reflecting the light from the city of Fairbanks, and the blues, purples,yellows, greens or oranges from the Aurorae, this was the most heart-stopping moment i've had in Fairbanks so far (which, it turns out, is saying alot!) I'll be developing some new pics soon of the event two nights ago! They just keep getting better! I've never seen so much color in one display! These Lights are over 70 miles above the surface of the earth!

 reports, 1d 5h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
