Great capture. I love the comp, lighting and POF. Despite the temperature being "unbearable", this pictures conveys an eery scene. Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

Well done, Hakon! I've never seen a road included with an auora
image. Exposure and DOF look right on to me.

Very nice Håkon. The fence and road adds structure w/o being dominant or detracting from the light show.

This is exceptional. Its not easy to get a good shot of Aurora Borealis with a road leading into it like this. Love the movement in this photograph.

What a cool formation in the sky to complement the road. Lovely work.
