Aurora playground....... [2 IMG] · 09:19 PM

What can I say...

They were back tonight.

and another one overlooking the old power plant:

Both captured with the K10D and FA*24.

Comments and critics are as always welcome.

Thanks for looking.

I like them both. The lights make the sky look so erie...

what was your time of exposure set to?

I thought the first shot was good, then I scrolled down to the second one. Wow, what a sense of drama you've got in that composition, it's actually quite unsettling. Awesome colours and beautiful photos... as usual!

Scott, you'll find that Thomas includes the Exif data in shots. I use the FxIF add-on in Firefox to read the data, but there are many alternatives.

Beautiful shots, the second one is really dramatic. The first I like a lot though, the playground equipment looks so alien in that shot, very cool.

Not much I can add other then WOW. Great shots it really must be amazing to see this live.

Glad you like what I do.
I aim my auroras towards being more than just an aurora photo. glad it seems to work.

exifs are as you mention always included with my photos, actually most for my own sake, but also because it may be useful to some...

My photos of it are getting better, but nothing will ever come close to seeing it live.
It is soemthing out of this world to watch.
