WOW!! What a powerful and accurate depiction of that snapshot, Sara! It is a beauty and worth the top spot! It makes sense to me now that those lights were the aurora borealis! Luv, Gwendolen

Congratulations on your first-place win, Sara. Not only did Alexa and I enjoy the imagery and message, but you were the only one to correctly identify the lights as the Auroroa Borealis. We both loved your entry! Love, Carolyn
