Congratulations, Ketil! The aurora are not new to me and I've seen many photos of them. What makes this one special to me is the excellent job you did of capturing the cabin lights and surroundings while keeping the aurora in proper perspective. I love the atmosphere that it captures. Very nicely shot and I would have given it a first prize. #983352
