Night

Auroras, the Milky Way and moonless skies

At night I work the other way round: I check the lunar calendar, look for skies far from the cities and focus on infinity while there’s still light. Then I stand still in the cold, with a 14 mm wide open at f/1.8 and the patience of someone who doesn’t know when the aurora will come. In Lofoten it came at 11:40pm, without warning.
