While researching the Web
for the photos for these pages, I
found so many excellent
ones that it was impossible to put them
all on one page.
It was difficult just trying to choose among them.
Here are some additional
photographs taken
by Dick Hutchinson.

Arctic winter 'Sunrise':
The following is not an
aurora picture... It is a vivid demonstration of the
shortness of the Arctic
day in midwinter, shown by time-lapse photography.

To give equal time to Alaska's
long summer days,
here's a graphic illustration
of the 'Midnight Sunset',
in the photographer's own
words:
"Midnight sun. Taken from
Eagle Summit north of Fairbanks, Alaska
on June 20th through 21st,
1998. Exposures 20 minutes apart."

Bill has a very cool web
site, with outstanding
photos of astronomical
objects, wildlife,
and Alaskan landmarks and
scenery.
