Located in Juila Pfeiffer Burns State Park, McWay Cove is home to McWay falls. This is a must do location for anyone travelling the CA-1 highway. The evening I shot this the surf was out of control! As a result, I had a ton of sea spray in the air which gives the photo a sort of soft look to it which I don't dislike actually. It gives the scene kind of a dreamy ethereal effect. Thoughts?

Not only I had a chance to visit THE ICE HOTEL (Jukkasjärvi, Sweden), I was lucky enough to experience Aurora Borealis.

Not just any Aurora but Level 5 Aurora in the Arctic Cirle (Abisko, Sweden). I was told the Sun is closet to Earth on 5 Jan 2012 (in many years).

We started our trip by having dinner at the Aurora Sky Station on top of the mountain. After dinner, Aurora started to appear and dance all night. When it began to subside before midnight, we headed down. Then suddenly Aurora re-appeared even more visible and we got to enjoy it in a ski lift all the way down (though I was disappointed that I didn't get to take more photos.)

On the way back to the Ice Hotel, the whole sky is covered with Aurora (this photo). Many thanks to our wonderful guide, Jimmy Bergqvist (jimmy@jb-tourism.se; www.jb-tourism.se), who stopped the van for us to take more photos. Please look Jimmy up when you are in the area. He won't disappoint you.
