  Nice one. Where did you shoot that?

  From our driveway near Prestvannet on Tromsø island pointing north . It looks like it could be a good season. We’ve past the low point in the aurora cycle so it should be all ‘show’ from here.

    Neat. I used to live right next to Prestvatnet a couple of years ago, that’s a nice area for walks. And quite central, within walking distance of both the city centre and Giæverbukta. Good choice for a place to live.

You, of course, will have credit…I’ve mentioned your blog there before (I post everyday) and we’ve just been talking about the Northern Lights in Norway…Or, please join us and post it yourselves! We would be MORE that happy to have two such talented members!!!

  Yeah, sure – you can use this picture on captainsvoyage. It’s hard to take photos of the Aurora as you are shooting into the night which means you need a long exposure, but the Northern Lights are always moving (or the wind blows the trees) so they tend to come out blury. But the stars are usually the constant as you can see in the picture. This Aurora is a good start to the season so hopefully we will be able to get some groovier pics closer to Christmas

  That’s beautiful! I’d love to see something like that sometime; we just don’t get to see that sort of thing where I live!
