Out in the Canadian wilderness, with a new moon, the dark skies lit up with a million stars and for about an hour the aurora appeared with a unique and colorful display across the Milky Way. It was astro-overload and I loved every minute of it. It's truly mind-blowing to see what this universe has to offer. This is one 30 second exposure at f/2.8 for 25s, ISO6400 for the sky and another longer exposure refocused for the foreground at f/7.1. Thanks for looking.

It is amazing to see the universe in action. It looks more faint to the human eye, but incredible what a 25 second exposure can pick up vibrance wise

There are few photographers that can deliver what this part of the world produces on an etherial scale... but you are up there friend, superb.
