A wide angle (14mm) shot taken in the forest looking straight up into the sky during a G3 solar storm at 54 Degrees North. Vivian Lake, Prince George, Northern British Columbia, Canada.
I have posted this up as part of Deranged Photography Contests - Paint the Sky contest run by @derangedvisions . Certainly the most amazing sky I have ever seen; it was pulsing green in every direction bright enough to see your own shadow.

Indeed. Do you always just up-vote your own comments but not the post you are commenting on? Very poor form.

Beautiful, I can see hints of pink as well which makes it extra special. Reminds me of working in the Yukon. Thanks for posting.

This is so beautiful - it makes me want to cry. I can't even imagine the rush of emotions that you must have felt.
I have a scene coming up in my story where there is an explosion of light in the sky.... (with your permission) maybe I'll have to tag back to this photo that they can believe me that it IS possible to see something so extraordinary and not EVERYTHING is fantasy/fiction ;)
and then again... i do like robbing the reader of everything but words - so that they're forced to use their own palettes to recreate the world I'm sketching for them. It seems to be so much more personal and valuable when their own minds fill in the gaps. hmmmmm decisions, decisions.... ;)

Thanks. Your more than welcome to use my images if you link them back to my page. It's true that ones own imagination can often develop images better than we could possibly produce in real life. I often find this with kids story books. That said if the story is not relateable to peoples own history; then images can help to seed the imagination.

I so agree... Often I'm so disappointed with the way that filmmakers portray books. I always want to write them and tell them.... You got it all wrong!!!! Lolol it was so much better in my head!!! Hahaha
Thank you for permission to tag back to your post!!! Not sure what I'll do , but I'll be sure to notify you if I do!!! :)

Very nice capture! It sort of looks like someone light the scene with those green glow-sticks.
We don't get to see the northern lights much, where I am, but if I head about six hours north to the Boundary Waters, you can see them.
