Panoramic of Stokksnes with a beautiful aurora borealis and with the moon behind me.
To photograph auroras, it is advisable to have long exposures of time (between 4 and 6 seconds) and very high ISO. If you overcome more time, the sky would be painted green and the green lines would disappear. But in this case, this aurora did not dance, it remained quiet and allowed me to shoot with longer exposure and moderate ISO. An enjoyment
As always, wishing it was up to your good taste.
