An aurora photographer in the Learning Vacations program at the Churchill Northern Studies Centre shoots the Northern Lights on the first night of the program for 2019 on January 31. This is looking north, with the Big and Little Dippers at centre over the Centre.
A classic auroral arc across the northern sky, from home in southern Alberta. This was January 4, 2019. For a brief while some yellow-tinted streamers appeared amid the classic green and red glows from oxygen. Polaris, marking due north, and the Little Dipper lie high and to the left of centre here. The Big Dipper is low on the horizon at centre. This is a single 15-second exposure with the Laowa 15mm lens at f/2 and Sony a7III at ISO 1250.
