aurora borealis

I had the pleasure of viewing and photographing the Aurora from Connecticut. This was incredible. Everyone in my town was out at the fields getting photos. I knew I needed long exposures to really pull the colors and lights out of the aurora. This photo shoot was so much fun and a once in a lifetime experience. I plan to travel to another country some day to get a better subject during the aurora but I am very happy with the photos =]

Budget- (Free)

5/5 star experience

Photo tip: If you ever get a chance or hear about this on the news, grab your camera and make sure you set longer exposures to pull in more light. Get multiple photos so you can layer in post because long exposures with trees will cause the tree line to get blurry. Take a separate photo of your subject in the same composition at a higher shutter speed first!
