Green Vision
The aurora over a lake with interesting ice bubble shapes. 3 stacked 14mm horizontal shots blended vertically for perspective + 10 shots bracketed and blended for depth of field throughout the ice. The two shots for mountains and sky were taken one right after the other and then I worked on exposing for the ice. Hard to think about all those steps when you're out there at 1am in the mountains to render a scene like this, but fortunately it worked out OK this time. The aurora is a real challenge to shoot WITH the landscape. I've given it my best effort so far this year. I spent two weeks up here amidst these peaks camping, hiking and taking photos.

What a magnificent image!

Why did you not use a tilt-shift lens for the depth of field part of this image and perspective? Or am I missing something?

Gerard Leeuw
Benjamin Jung  T/S lenses aren't available as wide as 14mm. :) There's the Canon TS-E 17/4 though. Perhaps it could be shifted and then stitched to get a wider FOV.
Gerard Leeuw  Thanks for the reply Benjamin

Thank you all very much for your thoughts on this one. I've known something like this could be done for quite a while now and have taken two trips spanning over a month trying to capture it. I wish I had time to comment more myself but as I am gone most of the while out in the field (I am currently conducting a workshop) and don't know when these will be posted I often miss out. I appreciate your feedback and thank you all.
