another evening spent gazing at the sky, very cold but well worth it.
Taken from the island of Sommaroy near Tromso Norway.
It was a tough decision which way to go yesterday to avoid cloud in the Calgary area. West proved to decent.
The Northern Lights glow on the horizon, Anvil Island, BC. They were not visible to the eye, but the camera records a lot more light than the eyes can see.
I have been working the Nikon raw file editor to tidy up some of these my first images of the borealis , they are not the best images but they still tell a story and have a magic about them. Though few pictures can convey the way they dance and shimmer across the sky, you have to be there to marvel in that. But most good , not these , borealis images can capture a frozen fragment of their magnificence, with their fringes that stretch to outer space like cosmic harp strings . These particular images show blurred snap shots of the unusual shapes and colours . Some of these also serve well to portray the scale of the phenomena.

The cold wind was almost forgotten with this exciting distraction. Probably would've been better if I had remembered to bring pants.
Lucky to have the Aurora so close to Vancouver. Taken from Drum Lake, just below July Mountain. In the Coquihalla area.
I per què aquesta foto? No és de les millors de l'aurora i he dubtat força si pujar-la o no però al final m'he decidit... i és que té un detall que la fa especial, un detall que moltes vegades marca la diferència en fotografia: la sort.
Mentre feia aquesta foto (exposició de 20s) als individus del cotxe de la dreta se'ls hi va acudir fer una foto de l'aurora...amb flaix (permeteu-me que dubti que es tractés d'un flaix premeditat amb coneixement de causa).
Tot i que inicialment els vaig maleir una mica per espatllar la llarga exposició (creieu-me, amb el fred que feia es maleeix amb molta facilitat), resulta que al final el seu flaix va il·luminar la campervan fent-la destacar i incentivant molt més la foto que jo buscava.
Després la foto està una mica moguda, el terra està una mica massa alt i altres petits detalls que no m'acaben de convèncer, però és un bon exemple de com aquests cops de sort inesperada també formen part de la fotografia. Cal estar atent per aprofitar-los.
Ara...m'agradaria veure la foto amb flaix.
The aurora borealis and the milky way. Usually the aurora appears in north (sometimes in zenit also) while the milky way is visible in the south, so needless to say, I was rather surprised over this opportunity
Equipment: Canon 5D MK2, Canon 16-35 MK2
From last night. Truly stunning! What an experience to stand in a few of my favourite spots and watch this display. First time I've ever got to photograph it.

After news reports and some emailed official Aurora alerts, I could not resist going out in hope of catching some colour. Usually, in the past, I have had to head for some serious dark sky sites, but this one was taken tonight in suburban Mount Gambier just 500 metres from home. I was amazed that I could even see a dim glow with the naked eye and equally amazed to see the colour overpower all of the light pollution from the whole of Mount Gambier directly in front of me. I am sure flickr will be full of amazing aurora shots from this recent storm, so this is my contribution!
I would have liked a wider angle lens, but this 24mm on the R10 is actually the equivalent of 38mm. As soon as I realised there was colour in the sky, I was in a hurry and did not want to spend time to swap the camera / lens combo for something wider.
