The sky turned Green auround us. Such an amazing night. I have witnessed auroras many times but never seen the sky turn basically all green around me. Captured with a Pentax K10D and a Pentax FA*24mm prime lens

Winter has arrived in northern Norway and temperatures below 15 degrees Celsius made it a cold pleasure photographing tonight. A couple of nice substorms, but mostly quiet arcs across the northern sky.

Photo details: Nikon D80 with Sigma 20mm lens, 20s exposures at f/2.2, ISO400.

My first auroras this season. A lovely clear, cold and calm night on the mountainside outside of Bodø, Norway. I went primarly out to watch for Taurid meteors but ended up photographing a short and intense show.

Colourful and moving auroras on a beautiful winterevening near our polarlightinfo-center.

A brief display of northern lights was visible on the night of November 13, 2007. Like anyone else I was busy photographing the 17P/Holmes comet. However, I found some time to shoot these pictures.

Solar minimum indeed? Here are some photographs taken from approximately 36,000ft from a flight from Gatwick Airport in the UK to take passengers up to see the auroral oval. On the night of November 12th, aurora chasers were greeted by an awesome display of the lights showing arcs, curtains and rays all changing rapidly as they watched.

I happen to be in Fairbanks, Ak for a couple of days and went NE out of town to try taking pictures of the Aurora and Comet Holmes with my new Canon XTi. Fortunately it was active until it got cloudy. Taken with a Tamron 17-55mm F2.8 at 17mm for 30 seconds with 800 ISO.
