Nice to see you back.. What a display, so cool to see the red and the green. May be an optical illusion, or reality, but is the horizon supposed to slope right to left?

Brilliant colours.

Fantastic image. Almost as good as being there - and a lot warmer than being there!

Fantastic image! Absolutely astonishing! Could you let me know about the shooting data?

Awesome Aurora shot, Tony!
Reds are pretty rare around here....mostly greens.
Did you amp up the saturation on this?

Impressive to the extreme!, I always love those 'well known' green colours I see in aurora images...but it's those red colours that make me go double WOW!, the stars add a big WOW too!, cool stuff!!!!!!!!

A really beautiful aurora in a fanstastic composition. This is a magnificent capture.
2 nits: the snow has a definite red cast, and the image is sloping left.

Wow! I love it.

I might try to make the colour of the snow a bit more neutral, but that is an insignificant nit on a very powerful image.

Thanks guys!
this was about 30 seconds exposure - magic cloth with about 20 seconds on the sky. The red have been boosted slightly but more I desaturated the blues (probably explains the red cast on the snow).
