Aurora Hella, Iceland 19 December 2018

[x6gas]

Been a while since I've done any astronomy but was in Iceland this week and even though the weather was generally not that great did get a couple of nights when the Aurora was pretty good for short spells.  Have a bunch of photos to process but my focus was off for some of them, unfortunately, and I'm thinking I probably should have had the lens stopped down a step or two rather than wide open...

I was concentrating on watching and enjoying the show rather than photographing it and the battery in my remote failed so some of them have some camera shake but good to get some images.

This one:  Nikon D40x, 50mm lens, f/1.8, 13s, ISO-100.  Just a bit of curves in PS.

Like I say, it's been a while and this is the first time I've imaged the aurora, so comments very welcome.

Spectacular. Almost makes me want to go to see them myself (but travel is sooooo stressful!)

Thanks for sharing.
