WinterCabin — where the stars sleep beneath the northern lights

Autographed Alaskan Photo Cards

The next best thing to being in Alaska is having a good photo of Alaska. I have taken six of my favorites and offer them here as photo cards. The photo is on the front of the card, while the inside is blank for your own message. All cards are autographed.

Northern lights in sub-zero Alaska, trees silhouetted in green fire.

"Alaskan Northern Lights-8A"

Silhouetted in "green fire" the trees in Donna's yard are illuminated by the northern lights. This photo was taken in January at about midnight as the temperature hovered around 47 below zero.

Sunset at Beaver Pike, the Alaska Range reflected in the Tanana River.

"Sunset At Beaver Pike"

Photographed in late May, the Alaska Range is in perfect reflection at sunset on the Tanana River, a few miles west of Tok, Alaska.

Aurora borealis over the log cabin.

"Cabin With Northern Lights-11A"

The green glow of the aurora lights the arctic sky above WinterCabin in Tok, Alaska. Taken beneath a full moon in December, the temperature was 56 below zero at the time.

A frosty-faced chickadee eating suet in below-zero temperatures.

"Happiness In Alaska Is"

Taken outside my log cabin window, this frosty-faced chickadee dines on welcome handouts of moose, bear and beef suet threaded on a wire. The thermometer behind him reads 52 below zero.

Sunrise on Blueberry Flats at the base of the Alaska Range.

"Sunrise On Blueberry Flats"

This large swampy area a few miles from Tok lies at the base of the Alaska Range and is a favorite blueberry picking area for locals, as well as bears, in the summer months.

Midnight sunset at Crystal Springs.

"Midnight Sunset"

Like poetry in motion, late July storm clouds reflect the midnight sun at Crystal Springs a few miles from my cabin.
