The shot is towards Hafnarfjordur (the red light on the right side of the picture) and is from our first stop when the Northern Lights got intense at that point. I wasn't sure if I was going to enter this challenge but decided to mostly to get comments on my Northern Lights shots.
Post processing was conversion to jpg, one round in neat-image to remove iso noise, photoshop curves, high pass filtering, levels, hue-sat and one overlay layer w. black to make the upper half a bit darker.
Don't expect this to do well, but at least I'm counting towards my goal of entering more challenges this year ! :)

Beautiful shot, love the colors in the sky. I never can get enough of these shots. Not being able to see them in person, this really brings it to life for those of us. Nice work.
There they are again - There they are also making me want to get on a plane and get out there for some of that action myself. Great image - Even the lights are in perfect composition.
