Emma ÖstbergIt was 2:30am. I’d barely slept due to a poorly three year old. But after seeing this through my bedroom window I still got up, got dressed and went out to capture it. <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/aurora" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aurora</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/auroraborealis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#auroraborealis</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/northernlights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#northernlights</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/norrsken" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#norrsken</a>

Lee PetersenThis is still one of my favorite aurora photos. The way the bands of light wrapped around the spruce trees that night was incredible. Taken in January 2015—one of the most unforgettable weeks of northern lights I’ve ever seen.Read about it in my blogpost: <a href="https://www.lwpetersen.com/photo-blog/week-northern-lights-wouldnt-quit/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.lwpetersen.com/photo-blog/week-northern-lights-wouldnt-quit/</a>Prints, Downloads & Wall Art: <a href="https://photos.lwpetersen.com/Galleries/Alaska-Photos/Aurora-Borealis" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://photos.lwpetersen.com/Galleries/Alaska-Photos/Aurora-Borealis</a><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#alaska</a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/auroraborealis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#auroraborealis</a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/northernlights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#northernlights</a>

Keef in ColourThis started out as a photo I took many years ago of the <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/NorthernLights?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NorthernLights</a> in <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/Iceland?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Iceland</a>. It was already quite a nice photo, but if I want to use it as cover art it needs to be square, and perhaps a bit fantastical. I'm not sure this treatment in <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/OneLab?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OneLab</a> makes it any *better* but it makes it fit the need a bit more. <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/Aurora?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Aurora</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/AuroraBorealis?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AuroraBorealis</a>

Lee PetersenAn unforgettable aurora display over Fairbanks, Alaska on January 14, 2023.

SaaraLast August I saw the most incredible Northern Lights I've ever seen (I've only seen them a few times since I live in the Southern Finland). The entire sky was covered with intense green lights and sudden flashes of red and purple. It was such a divine cosmic sight it was almost terrifying. These pictures are from the last % of the show because I didn't want to miss the most intense part getting my camera. I even managed to capture one of the Perseids in the second picture. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/northernlights?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#northernlights</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/aurora?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aurora</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/auroraborealis?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#auroraborealis</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/revontuli?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#revontuli</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/astronomy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#astronomy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/shootingstar?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#shootingstar</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/meteorshower?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#meteorshower</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nightsky?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nightsky</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/longexposure?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#longexposure</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/naturephotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#naturephotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/luontokuvaus?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#luontokuvaus</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/wondersofnature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wondersofnature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/perseid?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#perseid</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/perseids?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#perseids</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/breathtaking?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#breathtaking</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/mesmerizing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mesmerizing</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/avaruus?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#avaruus</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/space?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#space</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tähdenlento?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tähdenlento</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/yötaivas?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#yötaivas</a>

Fabian 🌲naturephotography📷We spotted the first auroras in the sky on the drive from the airport to our accommodation. So we quickly put on as many clothes as we could fit, got the tripod out of the suitcase and headed outside. A great start to the photo trip, especially as no clear nights were forecast for the next few days. . <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/landscapephotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#landscapephotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/auroraborealis?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#auroraborealis</a>
