Sommarøy Aurora

Shot this outside Tromsø, Norway, more specific in the Sommarøy (Summer Island) area, facing north.

 

Slightly high ISO (3200) and relatively long exposure time (8sec) since I was switching back and forward between two cameras and the auroras where literally everywhere and my pulse was rather high. Optimally would have gone slightly lower on the ISO and a longer exposure on this one, but all in all it turned out ok imo.

 

Hope you enjoy it.
