After a long road into the mountains, we set up camp at the base of this peak. The temperature was extremely low and we built a fire near our vehicle. As we were warming up the skies exploded. The aurora was so strong it was pulsing overhead for hours. We enjoyed an amazing show before the clouds began to roll in and hide the lights.
ISO 640 - f/2.8 - 8 sec - Alaska
The blue color is amazing! great shot and thank you for sharing this beautiful aurora!
I would love to be able to see this as a regular thing in my life
Have you ever seen the southern lights in your area?
I've been to Tromso in Norway to see them, and we can see the southern lights on the horizon from some places in Aus and NZ. But to see them more often and in full splendor would be great.
Me too - there's a chance to see the northern lights by me, but its rare. Still on the bucket list!
Awesome @Chaseburnett. It must have been bright, even the mountains are lit green! Definitely a resteem from me. Btw have you tried to do any realtime video of aurora?
Thank you! I would love to try but I definitely do not have the right camera for that. If I had the sony A7s that would be perfect. I've only seen realtime video once and it was by my friend Jake. He used the A7s.
This gives me an idea... I'll make a post tomorrow with some real time aurora video!

Insane man. Really making me want to head up there
I'll be back at the end of July. Perfect time to visit!
This is just amazing!
Thank you!
Wow. cool...
Amazing - looks surreal!
Beam me up!!! Takes my breath away!
It always feels like it's aliens. Just waiting to get taken up one of these days
wow just amazing ! Hopefully i get to see this one day ! Looks amazing
Really hope you get a chance to. Good excuse to visit Alaska ;)
Magnificent! Excellent work (as always). :)
Thanks so much! Trying to improve every day :)
Stunning capture! In Estonia it is kinda rare but we do get to see them time to time. I had 2 good opportunities to see them in 2017 but both of these times we had thick cloud cover...
That happens quite a bit here too. Whenever it is strong the clouds always seem to come in.
Un-freakin-real dude!!
This is sick! Resteemed!
Thank you! @photofeed :)
Those colors are amazing! Superb photo. :)
Oh wow @chaseburnett! What a shot! The Aurora Borealis is one of Nature's best performances! What an experience it must have been for you to capture this! Thank you for sharing it with us! Upvoted and Resteeming!
Those colors are unreal. I can imagine myself standing above the sky looking down-like standing over an aqua sea made of stars.
This is magical. It has always been a dream of mine to at least witness this in person. Amazing!
amazing.... do you edit the pictures in any way?
Keren keren fotonya...
That's so amazing @chaseburnett! I was recently in Iceland but unfortunately the camera i had could only manage a 3 sec exposure, so my aurora pics weren't that great. Love this one though - keep 'em coming! Following :)
Great that you were able to see them though! Even without pictures they are amazing. You got it!
