Northern Lights Over Kennebunkport

Nights like this feel almost unreal. I was in Kennebunkport when the northern lights appeared, and it felt like the entire sky was breathing with color. Soft greens and violets moved across the night sky, and the river below reflected every shifting hue. The little dories along the shoreline were completely still, and the faint glow from nearby cottages gave the scene a quiet, comforting warmth. It was familiar and otherworldly at the same time.

Seeing the aurora this far south in Maine felt like a gift. I remember just standing there, taking it in, feeling both awe and peace wash over me. The world felt hushed, like everyone was asleep except the sky. This photograph holds the memory of that rare moment when a small coastal town and a celestial display shared the same stage, and everything felt in perfect harmony.

If you are drawn to night skies, quiet moments of wonder, or the magic that appears when you least expect it, I hope this piece speaks to you. It brings a touch of that rare and peaceful beauty into your space, a reminder to look up and let yourself be amazed.
