First camera shots in Sweden. It had its struggles, slippy rocks icing over in the dark next to river rapids, not to mention intermittent clouds rolling in carrying sleet splattering on the lenses. Was still worth it. I only happened to stumble upon these falls searching for a dark spot away from the street lights and tourist bus trips 🌌

Aurora spam alert 🌌
Days leading up this I had been following space weather and Night Lights forecasts/alerts closely and was praying for some kind of activity. I feel so lucky to have timed this trip perfectly to have 3 nights of Aurora from day 1 in Abisko. These kind of sub-storms are caused by fast solar wind (HSS) from earth facing coronal holes only produced at high latitudes different from the blood red geomagnetic storms we often see in Whitby which come from CME or filament eruptions (solar flares quite often) around solar maximum. These HSS tend to produce more green and pink colours at lower altitudes moving very fast and bright, sporadically. So yeh it is still worth booking that trip north of the wall even if you have already experienced the northern lights at mid latitudes 🇸🇪 🇮🇸 🇳🇴

Perseids 2026 💫 - 3 hr Time-blend
First still photograph I’ve posted in nearly a year. After a numerous failed attempts shooting Perseid meteors in previous years I decided to point in the opposite direction of the radiant towards the Milkyway and what a class show it was! Totalling 18 meteors I decided to hand pick the best ones on a single base image edited and masked in photoshop. The Geminids of 2022 remains unbeaten however which was 23 meteor captures 🌌
