Fantastic photo Mark. I love that the stars come through so nicely, especially Cassiopeia. The Big Sky of Montana really does deserve that name and this photo exemplifies it well. It still blows me away that those colors are real. I hope some day I will get to see and photograph the Aurora.
Great shot and opportunity, Mark! I have never seen so many photos of the Aurora as this year. In May, folks we photographing the sky color in my area near San Francisco. Not like the opportunity you had!
Hi Mark,
The colors of the aurora certainly are magical and I love the fact that so many stars are visible in that night time sky. I could see just a touch more landscape at the bottom, but that is more of a personal choice as this is gorgeous as is. I also like the lights from the town as they are another wonderful element in the scene.
