Oh my Lord! I am just green with envy! If I were to be given one opportunity to photograph just one thing, this would be my dream choice. Beautiful shot of something so magical it defies description. (:o)

Rod Raycroft: Rosalyn its pretty easy to photography once you have the gear. Its the opportunity and time to do it. Northern Europe has several great places and I'd suggest a three night experience there or in Northern Canada. Once you decided to go send me and email and I'll tell you what I know.

I have seen the aurora many years ago when I was in Canada, I do not remember it being as spectacular as your capture.

This one is spectacular with the rocks and ground visible in such a subtle way.

Rod Raycroft: Most photographers and aurora viewers don't like it when the moon is full or half. I believe the best shots are with foreground.

Rod I read all of the comments I think I hop on the bus to go with you and try to get some great pictures, welcome to SC I love what you are doing!!

Rod Raycroft: Astrid the best time is naturally the late months in winter as the temperatures permit longer stays outdoors and doesn't affect cameras. But late August and September are great opportunities to visit Yukon check www.travelyukon.com
