Amalga Harbour, Alaska, USA

All is calm. Christmas Eve

This isolated cove on 'the Last Frontier' is the last place you'd expect to find a Christmas tree decorated from head to toe with glowing lights. Amalga Harbour lies about 15 miles north of Juneau in the US state of Alaska and shows that Christmas cheer knows no limits – even if it requires the use of a small barge. This photograph was taken from nearby Ernest Gruening State Historical Park, named after a former governor of the Alaska Territory. After his political career ended, he and his wife lived in a cabin that was preserved as part of this historic site.
