it’s the little big things by johannesleber by johannesleber

past Saturday, i was hunting for the aurora borealis (a big thank you to Manfred Zobrist who told me about this particular spot).

There was a lot of aurora activity for a couple of hours and i might upload some of these shots during the next weeks (make sure to follow me).

But to my taste, the real beauty showed itself when the aurora activity faded to a faint glow, which was nearly perfectly in line with the milky way.

Tried several single shots, but went for a panorama (11 single shots) then.

Accepting some light pollution on the right and a cloud of the left, as both of them accompany an aurora hunter all the time, framing a beautiful aurora.

Resulting in a 120something-Megapixel-image, it suffers a little from the lower resolution and compression. I do apologize for that.

To me, it was one of the (if not THE!) most intensive experiences in twelve years of photographing.
