Northern lights time lapse – This photo was taken on a 35 minute exposure, during the Aurora Borealis in Alaska’s Arctic Circle. The image includes the Northern Star, and the surrounding stars take on a circular dimension as the earth rotates. The mountains lighted under the brilliant sky are the Smith Creek Dome and Midnight Dome Peaks.
