Description
Tommy Richardsen // Trichardsen // Facebook // 500px Β // Google+ // InstagramThis is why I go up the mountain every day, and it makes things more fun when able to capture such cool shapes within the aurora.
Oh an may i add, it has been some heavy days lately, have to dress for standing still, which means when moving up a mountain with all the camera gear it is quite hard.
But it is all worth it for a shot like this, I am very proud of this cause I feel I was finaly able to capture the aurora where it speaks for itself with almost no foreground help.
For the post processing: contrast +30, clarity +32, lower by 300 temp to bring forth the stars, increased whites and blacks by a smidge, reduced the purple saturation a tad, lens correction.
Used hyperfocal distance to get everything in focus, so wasnt much need for sharpening really, but added some to it.

Absolutely stunning. I love the trees!
The aurora looks so great both in red and in green... can't really decide which I like better!

Thank you so much.
Red auroras are quite rare, some red often occurs but a lot of it is very rare.

Thank you so much, really appreciate it.
I wasnt always so into nature, but after learning how to draw and take pictures things have changes, and especially how I view things.

Well, I know you've been very busy chasing after the "light show" with your tripod, camera, and thermos of hot chocolate.

hehe, having stuff like hot cocoa and some kind of snack while standing outside for hours is equally important as bring the camera gear, those small things can really brighten up things when it gets real cold.

Wow! Over 800 watchers. You're something of a celebrity around here. I can see why. Thank you for bringing the beauty of the world to me, for I am a dull American city dweller.

Trichardsen In reply to Melalina [2012-11-25 00:44:31 +0000 UTC]
I just do art for myself, and It is staggering the amount of response I have gotten and especially lately.
hehe, celebrity, that is a fun way of looking at it, though I dont think I will even achieve that status, not sure I even want to, I just go along in my own way and whatever happens, happens.
Very glad you like my works.
