This nighttime photograph, originally rotated 90 degrees clockwise, captures a stunning view of the Aurora Borealis over a snowy landscape and a distant town. The dominant feature is the vast, dark sky, illuminated by a brilliant, flowing band of green aurora. This celestial display stretches across the sky, exhibiting distinct wavy and ethereal shapes with varying intensities of green light, and a few faint stars are visible in the darker patches. In the mid-ground, a brightly lit city or town is visible along the horizon, its numerous artificial lights creating a warm glow against the dark backdrop. Dark silhouettes of evergreen trees stand between the foreground and the distant urban lights. Tall, thin utility poles or masts are also visible, extending upwards from the right side of the frame. The foreground is characterized by winter conditions. A significant bank of white, textured snow occupies the lower right portion of the image. On the lower left, part of a wooden structure, possibly a deck or railing, is visible. It features red-brown wooden slats and white-painted support beams, with a light dusting of snow or ice. The scene clearly depicts a cold, clear winter night, ideal for observing the Northern Lights in a high-latitude location like Tromsø, Norway. There is no visible text in the image.Aurora borealis illuminates Tromsø sky i
