I agree w/Jim.
Each of these has it's own quality due to different aurora display.
But I have to ask, "where is the orb"
Dan
Thank you Dan. It's best not to taunt the orb, it may arise from its resting place...

Scott, really glad you went out that evening (morning). For me, the first three are the most interesting, especially where the aurora's colors reflect on the metal. And of course, that headlamp in the first.
I think those are also your best compositions. The last two...seem gimmicky, where attention is drawn from the aurora/car combination by the unnatural-appearing light painting. The aurora colors also seem strange. The car's in the same position in both of them, too. Against the first trio they seem like afterthoughts. My .02.
Thank you so much Bill. I know the light painting thing is not for everyone, including myself for the most part, but I don't mind how these turned out. Maybe with a little luck I can catch more aurora with moonlight to illuminate the car and surroundings. I was actually most excited about #4 when reviewing my exposures on site but after processing I really like the mood and light in the first 3 more. That is why I am leaning towards #1 as my fav. I might give the milky way a try soon too. Tonight is calling for clear skies so maybe even tonight.

Scott,
All of these rock, I especially love #3 & 4. really creative comps as well. Looks like you had a pretty nice display to work with. I will be working up in Edmonton in a few weeks so I am heading up to Yellowknife on the 12th-15th for a few nights with some moonlight I'm hoping for some nice displays. Great job here
Regards,
Dean
Thank very much Dean! Best of luck with your upcoming trip. Unfortunately aurora are unpredictable but the further north you go the better your chances to see them. Even if they are not that strong.
