wow Louis-
thanks for sharing your art.
I like your composition and capture on 'screech'.
Inspirational stuff.

Very nice Louis. I love the night shot and the Anchorage shot!!!

Thanks everyone. I was hoping to get some aurora in the Yurt shot (and in fact if you look in the bottom left corner you'll see a faint glow) but it was not meant to be.

Aurora

The now very famous Antelope canyon. This was taken 10 years ago!

Alaskan Wildflower - I love the way the DOF rendered this one.

Those look good man, I wish I had been able to get some good northern lights shots this winter, your photos of those are amazing.

Thanks everyone. I figured you guys would appreciate them .

I can't seem to "make it stop" LOL

Kenai river and hoar frost

no title required

Yeah the Aurora has been pretty lame the past 2 years for the most part. They actually go in an 11-12 year cycle (or there about's) and we are in the bottom of it. From what I've read it may be one of the worst low activity periods in 100 years.

 

[Recty]

Yep, I saw almost nothing this year for activity, I chalked it up to living in Anchorage and too much light pollution.

nope - it's just been quiet. There's been nights when I got home from shooting and saw them overhead standing in a brightly lit parking lot of midtown. Same with the moon, people think they kill it but I have an image of the northern lights practically wrapping around a full moon. When they're on you can see them if it's nighttime.
