Description
Wow! What a night! I have been taking northern lights images for about ten years from this location, but I can count on three fingers the opportunities for this southern facing photo to have been taken during that time period.
A strong "dancing" aurora borealis (northern light) show in the cool tones of green and blue is shown above the warm-toned pinkish-orange glow of city lights. The glow is seen not only above the town but also is reflected in the low-lying cloud cover and and and calm waters below and in the foreground -- making for an incredibly gorgeous night scene. To top it all off, silhouetted mountains, trees, shooting stars/planes, and light emitting from lakeshore homes provide interest and even more drama to this beautiful vision of a night scene.
This photograph taken March 2023 over the waters of Kootenay Lake, looking toward the small community of Nelson, British Columbia, Canada.
