A circumpolar star trail composite, shot at the old Larson Ranch site in the Frenchman Valley at Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan, August 27/28, 2014. The pioneer cabin was the home of the legendary western author and movie star Will James, born Ernest Dufault in Quebec. He lived in this cabin when he worked the ranches in the area. The aurora was excellent this night. This is a stack of 20 1-minute exposures at ISO 2500 with the 15mm full-frame fish-eye lens at f/3.2 and the Canon 6D. The foreground and point-like stars are from the first frame in the series.

A red and green aurora, from home on Oct 1, 2013, looking southeast. The green arc was obvious but the red was invisible to the naked eye - it only showed up on camera and this was a red-sensitive modified Canon 5D Mark II. This is also looking southeast, away from the main auroral band to the north. This was 30 seconds at ISO 800 and with the 24mm lens at f/2.2.
