This page actually begins with October 27th - Aurora photos taken too late last month to make it in to the October Photo pages. Then there is a November 4th sunrise photo, November 5th Pumpernickel bread photos, more sunrise color photos taken on November 8th, sun and snow photos shot on November 9th and also Kazuya feeding Black-capped Chickadees from his hand on November 9th.  Click on any thumbnail to begin.

Begin October 27th - November 5th
  As you can see, these first two photos are of the Aurora Borealis. The first one also shows my upper torso and the Big Dipper (Ursa Major). The second one has been manipulated enough, especially the lower portion, so that you can see our house plus the aurora and stars overhead. The first shot was taken from about 500 feet up the road from our house and the second one was taken from our driveway.

  Here are two shots taken on November 2nd. Are the colors actually different from those above or is the difference in color primarily due to the processor in each of our cameras? These two shots were also taken from our driveway.

  On November 5th I made two loaves of Pumpernickel Bread. It was so very delicious when hot from the oven!

  On the same day that I made Pumpernickel Bread it was also snowing lightly. As you can see here, we did not get much, but it was better than none!

End October 27th - November 5th, Begin November 8th and 9th
  Here are three sunrise color images taken on November 8th. The center shot is a 2-shot panoramic image of two portrait mode photos. I could have made the power pole disappear with Photoshop, but why fake it, this is what it looks like from our bathroom window.

  Here are two shots of the sun on November 9th. The first shot was taken in late morning and the second shot was taken later on in the afternoon. You can see that the sun does not get very high in Fairbanks, Alaska on November 9th.

  These shots were also taken on the 9th. The first shot shows the one-and-only pine tree on our property and the second shot shows the white tree tops with snow on them.

  Here are the final two shots from November 9th - Kazuya feeding a Black-capped Chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) from his hand. The second shot is so very cute with the little bird looking up at the big human, what is that bird thinking?
