Taken in Iceland, mountain KirkjufellTime
Night shot , taken after midnight at 00,18 min AmLighting
I was very happy to capture a series of aurora pictures that nigh. Aurora was changing it's shape and thanks to it I took different compositions within 20 minits of shooting on the place. In this picture I was grateful for the connection of aurora and the mountain tip as it looks like an eruprion of light.Equipment
Canon 5DM2, Canon lens 18-40mm, tripod ManfrottoInspiration
Untouched and beautiful places of our wonderful planet are my inspiration for each time as I am going to take picturesEditing

Idea should be the first, in my opinion, then we should carefully chose a place to photograph and be on the place at the right time. Regarding night pictures, it's important for me to know a place during a day light as it's difficult to find interesting composition at night.
