No
expectations for Aurora lately, but with clear, bright weather
last night, I went out for some star-photographing. But
the Aurora was not all that gone. It's not often I get a
meteor of this magnitude and brightness together with Aurora.
Pictures are taken at Vesteralen islands in the north of
Norway. Using Canon EOS 7D with Tokina 11-16 f/2,8, 6-10
secs. exp. ISO 800 - 1250 |

Another
great night in Abisko!! When I saw the red glow in the snow
and the green lights in the sky I could not help but grab
the camera and snap a few shots of the Christmas colors.
Soon after these shots were taken the clouds came in and
the moon came up. Shot with a Nikon D700, Tokina 11-16 2.8,
ISO 1600 and 8-10 second exposures. |

For days I've had waited for the Geminid meteors to arrive. But it was pouring down with snow all night long. So yesterday I went out, hoping for some remains of the meteors. Unfortunately I saw few, and did not manage to get any of them on any shots.
Still, there were plenty of Aurora, and here are a few of them. Together with bright moonlight from a half moon who lightened the landscape I had great time.
Facts: Canon EOS 7D, Tokina 11-16 f/2,8.
ISO 800 - 1000, 6-10 secs exp

I went out for the Geminids, and got Northern lights as a Bonus.
It is very difficult to get a photo of the meteors, but I got few.
