Aurora Borealis, Northwest Territories, on April 6, 2010
Photographed the first week of April, 2010 – one of the better "light shows" I’ve seen. For this shot I got in tight to the bottom of a cliff and shot skyward with my 15MM F/2.8 fisheye lens, trying t ...

Aurora Borealis, Northwest Territories, on January 26, 2010

Of course, there was no comet invovled, but the perfect angle and width of this band of Aurora looked like the perfect comet tail. Photographed on the road to Dettah outside of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. Photographed ...

Aurora Borealis, Northwest Territories, on January 26, 2010
This scene struck, quite simply, as spiritual. I’ve normally taken my Northern Lights image with either a fisheye or a wide angle lens – to capture as much of the sky as I can – but am grateful I chose my cheap ...
