Aurora borealis photobombing the Big Dipper over the smokey Canadian rockies

Image credits: Adrien Mauduit

In the months of July and August, British Columbia in Canada has known some of its most destructive wildfires, spreading across hundreds of miles and ravaging entire ecosystems. Winds bore the smoke and ashes up high and far away, but mostly to most of Alberta because of the dominant South-west-originated stream. As I drove up to Pyramid Lake in Jasper National park on July 17th to try and get a shot of the much anticipated solar storm, a brilliant display started around midnight, local time, with majestic and colorful curtains spreading across the night sky. As the beams passed over Pyramid mountain, it completely photobombed the constellation of the Big Dipper, passing low on the horizon at this time of night and year. The smoke, very conspicuous in the image, gave me enough time to get the shot before engulfing the whole area. You could easily mistake the aurora for actual flames producing the smoke, a feature that gives a very special atmosphere to the shot!

Sony a 7rII + Samyang 135mm f/2, single shot.

A video of the phenomenon can also be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9T-1wsfeBQ&t=27s

Summer Milky Way

The summer Milky Way rise over the distant towns of Aigio (center-right) and Diakopto (center-left) as beams of light reach into the night sky at the Gulf of Corinth in Peloponnese, West Greece. Captured last night from the other side of the Gulf, some 17km away at Vathi beach (bottom right) in Fokida, Central Greece.

Satellite Flare Over Stack Rocks, Pembrokeshire
http://www.mathewbrowne.co.uk

The Perseid meteor shower hits its peak this weekend. Earlier this week I visited the Pembrokeshire coast to hopefully capture some on camera. I was very pleased to find this photo among the collection, although an astronomer pointed out it's not a meteor at all but a satellite flare. Nevermind - an image I'm pleased with all the same.
