Yes they really were. Most people I know who have seen the lights in Iceland etc have told me they aren't that visible to the eye, but these were so bright.These are fabulous!
I managed some very average snaps of the lights in Iceland, but the nights we went out (coach trip - yuk!!!) the lights were barely visible needing some fairly long exposures to reveal much of them at all. These lights are so bright in your pictures, so how much of them were visible to the naked eye?
You realise of course you are hooked now don't you?
I did that many years ago and its become an annual pilgrimage now. Either Tromso or Alta
I particularly like No5 nice composition with the Lavvu spot on. You had some lovely clear dark sky's a very nice set and well processed, well done Ben
I had two good trips on the trot..... But then a real down to earth kick in the tripod . It is gutting when you go all that way and a no show..... well TBH not exactly a no show but the organised (Expensive) trip I had booked was 10:10 cloud cover.(n)I could have watched these every day for weeks. I already want to see them again.
Saw a video someone shot in Tromso yesterday and there was heavy cloud and snow. We were so lucky with the clear skies. Id be gutted to go back and find bad weather.
