Last night it got down to -35°C with the wind chill and it sure felt like it!

All CC welcome. Also for the last two, do you prefer the b&w or colour version?

I love the black and white. I think it is my favorite in the set.
You've got some great moon light for the mountains. Although that may be the natural lighting, I would probably darken the highlights some in 1 & 2.
Very nice. I've always wanted to witness aurora, then to photograph it - wow.

Awesome Matthew! I prefer the B&W version.... I would also be interested to see a little less exposure in the sky and mountains. Might help to bring out the Aurora? Thanks for sharing.

Thanks David. I'll try that and see if I can smooth it out.

All great shots. Just looking at these pictures make me feel cold, and insignificant. Great images! I normally never prefer the B&W images but in this set the B&W just works for me.
