Congratulations to Gary Clennan for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 12 votes - View Previous Winners


I took this shot back in February near Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. Probably one of the coldest nights of shooting I have ever experienced.

Unbelievable Image...one of the best aurora images I've seen. The moon and breath really puts this over the top.

really great shot. I just thought the moon would blow out more for such a long exposure. Was it just sliver that night?

What a great shot! So many different elements all working at once. And yes, I'll bet it was cold!

Almost a full moon.... I should check the exposure - may have been shorter than 25s.

Great composition. Although, I think the most impressive aspect of this photo is how still your subject was!

When you are properly prepared with the right clothing, you can keep fairly warm if you stay a bit active. I had all the gear but there are a few places in Yellownife that rent the complete setup (down jacket, boots, mits, etc) for quite cheap. I also use a lot of hand warmers. Now - trying to keep my A7RII running was an entirely different challenge!

All is spectacular here from the aurora to the detailed shine of the headlamp
