DonSmith Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I am currently in Iceland with fellow Artisan Gary Hart leading two Iceland Photo Tours this month. We have spent the past two evenings photographing Northern Lights. Here is one from last night. Processed on my small 13" MacBook Pro - can't wait to get it home onto a larger screen. Please share your favorite Aurora image! This was captured with the new Sony a7RV! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekRover Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Don, that is a beautiful photo of the aurora lights! I would love to have another chance to take one again. I went to Iceland 4 years ago during November and the rain clouds covered the sky 6 out of the 7 days I was there...the last day was a pretty weak aurora 😢 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LensBrew Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 In all honesty don, repeated subject deters me from shooting them. I'll try to shoot them one day, only to say I did. But I would like to shoot the Southern Lights and try to get the galaxy core in the same shot if possible. We rarely see shot from the southern hemisphere, so I want to capture those forgotten subjects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LensBrew Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Southern lights would be epic! I've seen some taken from Tasmania and they look epic!I plan to go further south. The plan is to shoot everything New Zealand has to offer, and then fly to the south pole to shoot there. It's a big trip and it's far away, that why it's not that high on my bucket list.

Hope you make it and have a great experience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steinberger Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Hey Don! I wonder if we may have crossed paths, I was there around the same time... Here are a couple of my shots from Jökulsárlón, evening of January 12th... Unfortunately I had clouds moving in but it was still a great night. Waves crashing in the distance and the seals snorting and splashing below. Pretty cool. Even better, I had the whole place to myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were just getting going on the 12th and were at the Snaefellsness Peninsula - not sure if that was the evening we caught the lights at Kirkjufell - would have to go back and check...
