That's not on our common planet, isn't it?
I would vote at least twice, if I could.

Fantastic picture! It's a pity that we cannot see the EXIF details. Can you tell something about it? Did you use a tripod? How long was the exposure?

Ragnheidur replies:
EXIF data... Hm, as I am not at home I can not go to the details of the picture NOW but as I recall... When shooting aurora borealis shots you NEED a tripod (or put the camera on the ground) - this shot was taken at around 70sec F5,6 manual focus on the lights and BULB with a remote and a tripod... As the "lights" are mooving very fast it is always exciting to look at the outcome as it is NOT the same as looking at it with bare eyes :o) If you have any further questions..... shoot :o)

did I mention that this one totally rocks my socks? :)

and speaking of that other picture, I really need to get myself a grey filter (I suppose it was done with one?) I love the effects of daytime long exposure...

So many wonderful and exceptional photographs from Iceland. It must be something about the starkness of the country that offers so many opportunities to photograph sight you would not normally see in the city with sodium glow from the street lamps.

Amazing colors. Do you see the colors in real life, too? Or it is completely dark, so you need the camera to make them visible?
Posted 12 months ago. ( permalink )
Ragnheidur replies:
You see the colors in real life too. It is one of the most beautiful things nature has given us!!! By far.... In reality the "lights" slide over the sky, sometimes fast but sometimes slow. From air (aircraft) you can even see them also. To take these pictures you need a tripod though - as you have to take them over some period of time (because of the darkness).... Best results I think are the pictures taken on btwn 60-90sec...

I have never seen such a beautiful sky.
One Month ago I`ve read a book "The Golden Compass",
The author describes Aurora there. I would never have thought that it is so beautiful. You are a lucky fellow what. I envy you! Fantastic!

Wow. Speechless. Never saw one and wonder so many things. They last? Move or static? Are frequent.
In any case a photo that could be perfectly printed in National Geographic.

Maybe cold, maybe winter, ... maybe night.
But I think this is one of the most beautiful natural spectacles in the world.

May you be having a nice week!
