May 10th and 11th those of us in the lower hemisphere got the opportunity to view the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights. While for most of us this incredible opportunity wasn’t visible to the naked eye it was easily viewable through a camera lens.
The photographer in me was incredibly excited to finally see the Northern Lights which has always been a bucket list item— with beautiful scenic landscape to take awesome travel worthy images— a last here in my backyard where I got the viewing opportunity I had trees and trees as scenery.
Also the photographer in me was sad because the camera was packed and ready for an event the next day and I didn’t have my tripod with me so I couldn’t use my big professional camera to take these images and was regulated to my cell which in my excitement I forgot to put in RAW— I hate having human moments!
Anyways, when it was all said and done these images were for me to look back and I am incredibly happy with what I made.
