 Some travelers put down a tent in the national park, at this moment they were sleeping, well I wasn't.

Edit: Thanks for the votes and comments.
No mister Otto was not with me that night but as you probably noticed we go wery often on aurora hunting together :)
I got many stunning frames from the night his image is taken but wanted to use this one.
The tourists trespassing in the national park and then missing this outstanding show was rather ironic.

Dramatic form in the sky is nicely captured in the water as well. Eventually I want to see the aurora in person.

Great composition with that Aurora framing the land and rocks in the water.
