Northern Lights over Lake Willoughby, Westmore, Vermont

Took this photograph at about 3am one Monday morning in June. 60

second exposure, f/2.8, 24mm Canon lens. Provia 100F pushed to ISO

400. Used my car head lights for about 3 seconds in order to

illuminate the red sail boat in the foreground (no moonlight

available at all). More of my work can be seen at

It's a beatiful photo about the Aurora Borealis and I like it quite a lot. But it can be improved by a little cropping from the bottom. I would have also touched the photo with some image editing program so that the light reflections on the water were removed (they disturb at least my eyes). See the touched version of your photo enclosed above to see the difference.

Having both the big dipper and the aurora clearly visibly makes this photo very special. I'm not sure the boat does much for me, however.

Awe inspiring! Some people only live to see it once in a life time. Flashing head lights to illuminate boat...freaking genius! Way to go!!!

Thats more like it. I'm with Wilson's....

 

 

Perfect! can be better and after a while you will know(if not already) how.

Also mate, try using different types of film, sure there is something out there more appropriate. Top notch! A
