Aurora explosion
On the evening of 17th of March 2015 the most awesome northern lights show that I have ever witnessed took place.
Shooting the aurora is a bit challenging but also very rewarding. On that cold night my friend and I drove just outside of my home town Grundarfjörður to shoot some aurora as the forecast was very promising to say the least. As we reached our first stop the northern lights were everywhere. It did not matter which direction we faced, the sky was filled with light in various colours. Green, red, purple, blue... It was so spectacular.
This went on as the hours passed and no matter where we moved it was always the same. Just plain awesome.
To make things even better the weather was on our side as the wind was at its minimum. Totally calm weather as we got the perfect reflection in Kolgrafafjörður fjord wich is next to Grundarfjörður fjord.
I hope you will have the chance to witness an awesome night like this in the future.
Here is a little timelapse video that I made from this beautiful scenery.
