Just spectacular!

Northern Extravaganza ||
I felt very privileged to be in Norway to witness Aurora Borealis. I’ve seen many shots of the northern lights which focus only on the light show, without considering the foreground. But it was important to me to have a beautiful scene, as well as capture the spectacle of the northern lights. The Aurora phenomenon can appear in varying degrees of strength and colour. This was an extravagant heavenly light show – Aurora Borealis at its best. The amazing display went on all around us for almost two hours, dancing from one side of the sky to the other. The experience was quite overwhelming. So, after taking this shot, I put my camera down and just continued to enjoy one of nature’s greatest lighting spectaculars.
