Winter night

Norwegian winter night, do you like to have the cottage inn the

capture?

magic shot!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!

Perfection and dreamy. An amazing photograph!

wow! incredible.

The cottage helps make the photo what it is. It looks like an elaborate model - a section of a Christmas village or something.

 

Very nice.

Thank you for your comments.

I like the cottage being there. very nice shot

I hear the Christmas carols in your amazing work. KyooHyun.

I do like it, Christmas just Christmas.

That's pic in the greatest hits!

congratulations

Unreal image! Very nice.

Exelent work

 

Very nice work Ketil - makes me home sick as I prepare to celebrate Xmas in 40C downunder : )

 

If you don't mind, I'm curious to know what ISO / f-stop / shutter speed you used for this picture?

I use Iso 400 8 sec on canon 17-40L f:5,2

Superb!

I'm wordless, you captured all the tones in perfection, rendering the wonderful winter snowy norwigian night plus the northern lights....wow!

Fantastic picture! Good composition, nice tones and color, it puts me in a christmas mood.

 

btw. How does the 20d perform in cold conditions. Any comments on this?

I'll echo all of the positive comments from others. I love the composition. In the spirit of continuous improvement, I'll pick at one nit: I would have edited out the poll sticking up above the left side of the cottage. It looks like a wind gage or antenna.

Yes fantastic picture, I wish I was there!!!

Another fabulous image. I am SOOOOO envious of never having seen the Aurora Borealis.

I assumed this was a composite of two photos until I saw you checked the unmanipulated box. Maybe that's why you haven't cloned out the antenna or wind gage...to be able to keep that box checked. When viewing at large, my eyes go directly to it and I think that would be the only thing keeping Hallmark from buying this from you and putting on thousands of Chistmas cards. With or without the pole it's still a 7/7 and only suggest this, like Ron said, "in the spirit of continuous improvement".

Most excellent!

Excellent capture, Ketil... Very beautiful and artistic...!!!

Beautiful. Lovely magic atmosphere !!

This is one of the most captivating and enchanting photos I have ever seen. Magical! The northern lights, colors on snow and composition are incredible!
