Pink Sunset over Partridge Falls



Last night's sunset at Partridge Falls on the Pigeon River. This wonderful sunset was only the beginning of what was to become an amazing night of photography!



Above: After sunset at Partridge Falls I was out shooting stars and the Milky Way when a quick glance to the North revealed a nice surprise: a faint glow of Northern lights on the horizon! There wasn't any aurora activity in the forecast that night, so I was quite excited when I looked to the North and saw the lights. Since they were so faint, I decided to try a long exposure. This image ended up being 30 minutes long and I just loved the effect of the Northern lights combined with the spinning stars.
