Intensity

The ice fog is so pretty, floating for a half mile underneath cloudless skies. The sun shines through it making the entire town look as though it were a dream sequence in a sappy movie.

When the ice fog dissipates in the afternoons, the sky is a much more vibrant blue than I can ever recall seeing. It reminds me that even though life in Alaska is quite intense at times, it never ceases to be beautiful.

Which makes me sad that I have still not brought long underwear to work with me. I cannot walk around outside and take pictures without a thermal layer, leaving me to depend on my car window sill opening at -40°F so I and my camera can lean out of it on my lunch break.

I can only hope that the skies remain cloudless through the weekend.
