The Northern Lights, 8th October 2011 !
Shot in Norway, Bodoe, local Mjelle :D

The night me and my friend Gaute was going to shoot a Draconid meteor shower ! The auroras was weak when we arrived at the spot the Auroras was weak lines crossing the sky.

We saw some meteors flaming up around on the night sky ! But the auroras activity was exploding, suddenly there where a Corona on top of us, seen here -> [link] !
The lights around us was amazing, strong green and red colours between the columns and lines !

We thinked about shooting some reflections with the small waters behind us, so we took the gear and ran over there !

The Northern lights was so extreme that figuring out a nice setting for the show was changing rapidly within the hour !
I like how this picture came out ! lines and columns fading over the little water that was quiet, no wind, no waves ! :D
Also in the picture it`s evident the movement and activity of the light ! As some parts fade out and others allmost over exposed ! :D

Have a great weekend everyone ! for more of my aurora shots : [link] please have a look ;)

I'm here on behalf of
STA because your piece was in the group's critique requested folder.

At first I must say that I have been extremelly impressed by the quality of your picture . the Swetness of the green light against the rounded texture rock with a great reflection in the water.

It directly caught the attention.

the sole wealkness (very small one) I would notice is that the color (a bit blured) of the right rocks doesnt' match with the overall picture. I mean that all the direction line lead the eyes to the horizon. I would think that this picture taken more in the left would have a greater impact and contrast.

Anyway great work!

I must apologize that my critique will not criticize, but the photo you have made is truly beautiful to me, and I can only tell you why. First, I was attracted to the shades of blue and green, which are exotic and deeply satisfying to my heart, which is where this photo strikes. Your composition is perfect with the imposition of grey rock that is both cold and warm at the same time, and aiming the eye to the right hand third of the frame. The orientation of the camera is obviously intentional thereby, and the presence of the photographer is thus felt, giving the viewer a sense of familiarity with the location, space, and moment in time. That's quite a feat for such a place so far from the viewer's reach. Thus it succeeds as the gift you that intended it to be, expressing the generosity of your soul. Very well done indeed!

This is such a fantastic piece! I can see the magic that you also felt while watching the Aurora's.
The idea of capturing the reflections as well add so much more beauty. :love:
