Affordable 14mm and 11mm for Auroras

We examine the old map from 1926 and note that things have happened in some places. And not in others. #omsystems #14mm #maps #aniversary
Next time I really need to make sure that the lens and glass are parallel...

Snow. Forest. Moon. Aurora. First of Jan, 2026.

The last year ended and the new one began with knitting. Happy new year, with many new projects. #omsystem #14mm #happynewyear #knitting #sweden #vasterbotten
Sometimes I remember to point the lens directly overhead during an aurora event. It's often hard to find a spot without trees or a cabin overhanging the frame. It's a surreal perspective without any reference in the frame, but I still like having a few of these in a collection. I love the depth of structure that emerges during these dances of light. The red hues on the edges of fast moving filaments, the bright cores, and the ripples that reach out to the horizon.

Adding this to my thread of Norway moments this week, because I just love the atmospheric dance of light in this corner of the fjord. It feels like the entire solar system has jumped in to make a composition for me. So dynamic. So ephemeral. So lucky to be standing here.

This was taken two nights ago, before the rain set in :)

Adding this little video to my thread. It's not a great video, captured as an after thought. But does show two things...

https://vimeo.com/1149188863/513d029b1e

Firstly, the speed of an active aurora in real time. You see ripples moving across the sky in this footage, and the colour shifts. Some auroras barely move at all, others on this night were racing much faster still. They vary a lot. But hopefully this footage conveys the dynamic nature of auroras.

The other thing this footage demonstrates is the different between still photos and video. A 4sec exposure for the stills, versus 1/25th of second for video. This was shot on a Lumix S9 with an F2.8 lens and ISO 128000. A faster lens would help, not to mention waiting for a moonlit aurora event :)

Went out to dinner last night for a Christmas celebration with friends. Then things kind of escalated. From now on when we talk about the "Christmas Lights" this is what we're really hoping for :)

PSA, always have your camera gear in the car when you drive to a friends place in the north!
