Northern Lights dancing above the native symbol Inukshuk

It was a very cold but extreme exciting evening!

Hope you enjoy the picture.

Breathtaking! Very good focus and exposure.

Beautiful Image Excellent by all Standards ! Maximus 4U2Day ! Have a Safe Happy Holiday Season !

Spectacular shot. The Northern lights are already impressive, but with a foreground like that it's just awesome. I'd prefer a little more room at the bottom though.

I agree with Marsel. You have captured 2 subjects that would make a spectacular photo, in the same photo. Amazing!!! Did you have to paint the rocks with a flash light, or lantern??? How long was the exposure??

 

Thanks for sharing

 

 

Thanks for all your comments.

Yes, I used a flash to paint the inukshuk, the exposure was 13 sec @ 2.8/ 200 ISO, 16mm, Canon 1 Ds Mark 2.

Remember, you are here in downtown polar bear country, just on the edge of Churchill and it is a little strange standing outside when it is "dark" knowing that the next bear could be right behind you...(glad I saw the next bear next morning and not this night).

 

I have a few more of this series here: pictures of northern lights.

Fabulous image 7/6

Amazing work Rolf.

Very dramatic. Incredible depth of field, and interesting composition.
