This was shot on a random dark road somewhere 30 minutes outside of Reykjavik that probably only our driver Siggi knows where it's located.
You hear stories of people going to Iceland to see the Northern Lights and not seeing them the entire time there and others getting full-blown auroras with crazy dancing lights. Well, we didn't quite get the crazy dancing lights here, but we were still quite lucky to see them on the very first night we arrived and then a second time about a week later, so no complaints.
This was my first time attempting to shoot the Northern Lights and I had little astrophotography experience in general so it was a bit of a struggle at first to get good results, but through lots of trial and error you have the result seen here :)
My first attempt at the Aurora. Our group went out on New Year's Eve and found this lovely location. The lights were brighter later in the evening, but I like the soft glow in this.
From my archives.
After 10 days of mostly clouded sky, we finally had a bit of clear sky, and the auroras came out for a while. Vesterålen, Nordland, Northern Norway.
It has been way to long since my last post here, I'll try to update my page more frequently in 2017. This picture was taken a few weeks ago, I had spent the day out photographing and on my way home I suddenly noticed the auroras dancing.
Being in a hurry to get to a somewhat decent spot and start photographing, I forgot my gloves in the car. Did not notice the temperature being minus 25 degrees C until I got back to the car again... #tobusytontice #frozenfingers

Experimenting with timelapse stacking - this is 61 shots stacked to create a visual of how the lights (and stars) moved during a recent show. Lots of fun to play with this technique!

When I came home tonight the sky went crazy for a short while
Not only the regular green and yellow, but the more seldom red ones and then even the purple you almost can not see with the naked eye.
'Aurora' is the Latin word for dawn, and the goddess of dawn in Roman mythology and Latin poetry.
The attributes of Aurora are a torch, symbol of light, either carried by her or for her by a companion; the eagle, which hunts by day; the flowers that open with the early sun; a vessel for pouring out dew; and the morning star.
WE can thus see here many attributes of nature related to photography especially light, wildlife, flowers, the early sun, dew drops and so on.

First time in my life I spotted northern lights...I was blown away. People from Fairbanks, who have seen frequently aurora told me that this was a special night. The colors were amazing and I was happy that I could take a couple of sharpe pics. Taken at 2 a.m in Denali National Park.
A shot from the fantastic evening 17 March, 2015.
I will never forget how amazing it was to stand there under the Northern Lights.
Explored 23 Sept, 2015
First sighting of the illusive Aurora Borealis. Lasted intensely for thirty minutes then clouded over. Amazing nonetheless!
I am curious about the structure developed in the aurora. the distinct pillar structures are standing out during this phase. Taken around Midnight Friday Nov 6, 12:01 Saturday Nov 7
