Alaska Northern Lights Photo Workshop

Photograph the Aurora Borealis in Alaska's far north

Fairbanks, Alaska, is an ideal location for photographing the northern lights. Its high latitude places it directly in the Auroral Oval, making aurora a frequent occurrence.

March is the best month for aurora viewing in Fairbanks. While the temperatures are cold, they are warmer than the winter and typically dry, with a better chance for clear skies. Also, aurora occurs most frequently around the spring and autumn equinoxes. During this season, snow-covered arctic landscapes make a fantastic backdrop for aurora photos.
