Congratulations to rji2goleez for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 14 votes - View Previous Winners

Some favorite captures from the northern lights taken on 3/23/2023. These were taken at Split Rock Lighthouse on the north shore of Lake Superior. It was an unbelievable night. The show started right after dusk and photographed from a single spot for more than four hours! The lights were all around us . . . a 360 degree view and also directly overhead. We were even able to hear the northern lights which I can only describe as a faint sparkly, crunchy, static sound.

I have never witnessed such a beautiful display.

Absolutely jaw dropping! Love the way you described it. Just showed the set to my wife, as it's one of our dreams to experience this glory first hand. You definitely have my vote this week!

Always wanted to witness these. These images just push me even harder to get to see them while still able to travel. But these are truly spectacular and I am sharing them with family.

Wow, thanks for your kind words. It was a bucket list event, my first time photographing the lights and boy, was it a good show!
