i went out to catch the northern lights with the family a few nights ago…
i guess we went out too early, and the kids grew tired of waiting for the lights to make an appearance. since it was a school night we brought them home, lights unseen, in order to try to allow for a proper night’s sleep… 🙁
i have done very little work with long shutter speeds, so while anticipating the n. lights, i took many practice shots of the sky… well, i was pleasantly surprised once i put these images into lightroom, and adjusted the white balance… although far from perfect, i’m pretty happy at what my camera saw that night because it ‘looked’ a little longer at the sky than i did… not too shabby considering i thought these were merely practice shots of ‘nothing’… amazing what can happen, if given a little extra time…
…i do hope to catch the northern lights in full operation with my own eyes one night soon
and with only a little bit of tweaking here is what my camera saw…
