The first night we shot auroras around the cabins, and got to grips with our camera gear in the cold conditions. Everyone did well. The second night we went harder, and ventured into the forest on a quiet little trail.

Under the moonlight we captured the fresh snow and frost that blanketed everything in white. And then the nordlys arrived! We kept going for about 3 hours, and Shellie served up hot drinks to keep us warm.

Shooting up through the birch trees, into the moon and capturing a band of aurora crossing overhead.

One of the last shots of the night, a band of aurora retreats to the west and collapses into a wiggle.

Next part of #aurora photos. Never thought I'd get to witness such a spectacle here. When the IPA (isolated proton aurora) visible in image 2 & 4 took off.... Wow. Words can't describe it. Images are in chronological order, panoramas of 8-12 images shot within 3-8 minutes beginning 21:30 UTC.
If you want to see a video of it: Someone near Stuttgart filmed that bright green burst visible in my last pic in *real time*: https://youtu.be/e19kAuC-6eU

Photos of a frozen over lake on a moonless night. A bright bow of green aurora in front of another red-grewn curtain is mirrored in the ice

Green bow weakening, but a blurp of acid dust blowing of further West like a silent firework. Eastern red intensifies.

Changing location slightly. Just a few greenish spots on that northern colour curtain. Show's over? Ohh, no...

an intensely white and green burst rips open the sky, turning tourquoise before fading. Meanwhile another green bow gnaws its way from West to East on the Northern horizon.

Next bunch of Jan19 #aurora pictures for #FotoMontag: I would have gone home a happy bunny just getting images like the first one. The shock front of CMEs rarely causes the most visually stunning parts of a storm (especially down here in Central Europe). But then the sky cracked like an egg and became a silent concert of color and movement.

a compressed, deep red curtain over an acidic green horizon. Mirrored in the icy chaos of reeds and bushes in an iced over pond

Red curtains and green spots dancing in the Northern sky, all mirrored in smooth ice

These last two images are panoramas of 8-12 single images. 15mm each, covering over 120° of horizon.

One more pic today. We set the cameras rolling on timelapse mode, then step back to enjoy some hot chocolate and just watch the show unfold. This capture was from one of the last flushes, when the ribbons danced rapidly to the north. Our entire fjord was light up with green neon.

Sharing these evenings with a great bunch of people makes it doubly special.

A pair of birch trees are on the left. Our photographers are gathered on the right. They're blury from moving in the slow exposure. One is still sitting at the tripod taking photos. Above them the entire sky is lit up with green and red auroras.

Everyone had just gone to bed when the satellite data wiggled. Within 30 minutes we had assembled by the shores of a frozen lake and setup the cameras, and watched the nordlys unfold. Slowly at first, just a gentle band in the north.

And then it all went disco.

Captured on the Lumix S9 with Sigma 14-24mm F2.8. Exposures were 2.5 seconds at F2.8 and ISO 4000.

First frame of three from a time lapse. A few birch trees rise above the horizon, and a tall mountain peak can be seen in the distance. Nordlys flame into the sky from behind the mountain.

This night of nordlys was nearly a week ago, and I need to make room for a bunch more captures. The forecast for tomorrow and tomorrow night is very very clear. Gonna need a good nap and lots of charged up batteries.

Snowy day today so we did some food photography and went through some of our older shots from this past week. This was a lovely little moment when the light was breaking out from under the clouds near Harstad.

I love the moments of transition, when we find ourselves with one foot in each world.

The sun has been fizzing with solar flares, some quite large, over the last few days.

This makes aurora at lower latitudes than usual likely.

This prediction from NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center's ENLIL indicates that the largest activity may start tonight New Zealand time, but is likely to peak after the sun rises.
