Details:
While camping at Tombstone Territorial Park, Yukon, I got up every night between 12 and 1 to check for aurora. After four nights of clouds and snow, midnight struck and the skies were miraculously clear. I woke up Josh who blearily followed me a few km up the North Yukon River where I threw on my waders and waded out into the channel. Though the temperature was -10 or so, I was dressed warmly enough to stay warm - for about 5 minutes in the water. After that, it was trading minutes for toes. However, I feel the end result was worth it.

Oh boy. What an utterly stunning shot! I dont think I have ever seen such an amazing aurora skyscape ... you nailed it ... composition, action, exposure, colour ... all just perfect. Thanks.

Great Shot! Would it be rude to ask what you use for a setup and what settings were used to get this great shot? Thank you!
