"Spellbound" XI

First image from last night, one of the most beautiful I have ever spent in the mountains.

I spent most of the evening at my "usual" aurora watching location, Lake Minnewanka but eventually the lights strayed so far south/east that a visit to Vermilion Lakes had to be made. That is where most of the magic happened.
173 Nov 14/12 Taking a break from the New Orleans photos as we got an unexpected show of Northern Lights last night.  Long exposures of 20-25 sec were needed making the snow look like daylight.
