I was not expecting this - a grand view! The whole image is well composed. Pretty field and silhouetted distant forest. Of course, the Aurora Borealis is awe inspiring. Beautiful pink and green colors - charming frame work with the dark green background. Thanks Darryl, for sharing this lovely sight :*>

Breathtakingly beautiful my friend. I flashed back to when I was a child (many, many moons ago) before the days of light pollution Sometimes we could glimpse the northern lights. I was always amazed and now I am seeing them through the eyes of my friend who lives north. Wow. You are wicked with that camera Darryl. There is nothing but praise to say here. Good job and thanks for staying up so you could capture this shot and share it with us. :~) Kudo's !!!!!!!!!

Oh wow. That is gorgeous. We don't get these in Louisiana. I do remember seeing one in when I was trucking through Montana one time. This is gorgeous. Even the stars are showing. Great work.

Absolutely wonderful shot here! I have never had the pleasure of seeing one in person. You have captured this just perfectly - and I like the character the looming clouds add too!

aww they were good yesturday too? on saturday i was on a retreat up by rocky mountain house, and they were just awesome, some reds-yellows showing aswell, unfortunately i didnt have my camera along, and it would have been interesting photography from a canoe haha. was there a band of lights to the south aswell? can you reply and tell me what 10mm lens you have that goes f/3.5? i have the sigma 10-20. this one seems to distort a little more, but what a shot

I will have to see this for myself one day... not much chance of it ever happening around here though. This is a spectacular shot. I am wondering about the smaller than usual resolution though?

What i great capture this is. I now have it as my wallpaper, Thank You. I live in Indiana and actually saw a little of the northern lights but it was very light and brief. Still very neat to actually see it.
