Chasing the Lights

in #photography8 years ago (edited)

Here are a few images from this weekends Aurora chase. Enjoy!

It was about 2 degrees Fahrenheit all night! We first drove south from Anchorage to Girdwood, a small skiing town at the base of Alyeska. After catching the first glimpse of light, we raced to portage where the sky exploded!

While on the frozen lake we watched shooting stars and tried to stay warm.

Another beautiful night in Alaska! :)

Damn, your photographic results are absolutely stunning!

I think you did a pretty good job at chasing that aura!

It was cold, but always worth it!

I envy you for this experience. Spectacular shots!

Can you give us some information to the exact location?

We first went to Girdwood, Alaska. Then we headed about 10 minutes further south to Portage Lake :)

Awesome post and incredible shots as always, thanks for sharing ;)

You got it! Thanks for the support :)

Stunning shots. I really need to head that far north some time.

Virginia isn't too far ;)

Wow, amazing as always man! Where was this out of interest?

We started in Girdwood Alaska and then headed to Portage lake. Both are about an hour from Anchorage where I live.

Incredible! I live out in Ottawa, Canada and every once in a while we can go out and catch of glimpse of the northern lights, but never this clearly! Looks like an amazing place to be :)

The photo with the three silhouettes reminds me of a jazz band celebrating :) Beautiful shots. You do such great work!

Thank you. We were as excited as a jazz band ;)
