Wow you have been blessed, lately, with lots of beautiful borealis! Since our temps and landscape looks so much like your does, this year, I wish we could see some of these too! Another beautiful shot!

Wonderful photo! You seem to be using manual mode quite a bit now, that's great! Did you get the Tokina 11-16mm f2.8? I bought this one about 4 months ago, and I love it!

About katy99780
katy99780 I've lived in Alaska since 1969. I really love this wild land. The extremes of the far north shape and affect every living thing. Extremes of weather, elevation, daylight hours, isolation, flora and fauna, nothing in Nature is insignificant.I have a Davis Vantage Pro weather station, uploading to Wunderground, (Turks on the Tundra) the National Weather Service, the Citizen Weather Observation Program and MADIS (Meteorological Assimilation Data Ingest System).
