Remark Photographer
N649AS (cn 30663/1386) Wow! Northern lights and the Great Dipper!! This could be one of the ultimate window views that I could expect. Mother Nature surely does know how to pose for photographs. However, this is changing forever and could disappear suddenly as we are now traveling more than 700 km/h with 10 km off the ground. Definitely, this is a damn difficult image to capture where my passion for photography comes from. The red cast on the wing comes from the anti-collision light as I managed to synchronize my photo with it.

Dear lord! That is an amazing photograph of an aurora. Great detail also. Purely amazing and astounding. There it goes to show how what you can see while at altitude up near the north.

A visitor from United States posted Thu June 7, 2007:
Incredible. Even though it was a moment in time, it seems to capture the speed involved by having the Nothern Lights at the leading edge but nothing past the trailing edge. Very good shot!!

A visitor from United States posted Tue May 22, 2007:
This is an amazing shot. The beauty of the shot is only rivaled by the skill involved in taking it!

A visitor from United States posted Thu April 26, 2007:

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Sun March 25, 2007:
I like the green-red contrast! it is shown perfect here

A visitor from United States posted Mon March 19, 2007:
A view only a few can see in person. Incredible.

A visitor from United States posted Wed March 14, 2007:
Nice contrast between the red light on the wings and the green of the aurora, and I like the way that the wing and lights parallel each other.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed March 14, 2007:
Great composition, lighting, eerie effects, mixture of red/green colours - everything!

A visitor from Canada posted Tue March 13, 2007:

"Quick captain, we've got to land! The wing is evaporating!" LOL Great shot!

Perfect capture! In addition to the Northern Lights, I love how clear you can see the detail on the wing.
