Best Auroras of 2015

 

I was up north of Yellowknife in March when I took this shot (8 seconds handheld). The sun will soon rise. I saw the aurora most nights when travelling in the north but, sadly, wasn’t able to stop very often.

It was a while since I had last shot images of the northern lights and I still had to refine my technique. In this shot the exposure was too long and the stars started to create trails. This time west of Carstairs.

During the summer, I was able to get out to see the aurora a few times. Here we are at a pond east of Didsbury.

I saw this beauty in November, just east of the QE2 Highway near Carstairs.

December saw me out late for more aurora hunting, to make this catch.

I hope everyone had a great year of photography and wish that 2016 be your best year yet!

In the best light…
