Northern lights (Aurora Borealis) as seen from the 747-8 flightdeck

The Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) illuminating the dark moonless night over the Yukon, very high North of Canada.
Constantly changing curtains of light dancing their mystical show, Ive never seen it to such a spectacular extent.

Nikon D800
5s f/2.8 at 10.5mm iso10159 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

and geez, it looks as though you set up a tripod shot? Or a bean bag? :) a great photo at any rate!

I quite like it how the pilot is texting in the meanwhile. Cool under pressure :)

Great composition with inside and outside both good to see.The 5 second exposure is so sharp.

Great photo. I'm really surprised that the aircraft was stable enough that the stars appear as points in an exposure that long
