Snæfellsnes Peninsula Northern Lights
Posted on 26/2/25
The Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) are a natural phenomenon which are often elusive. In fact they are very elusive with not only the correct conditions existing out in space between the solar wind and the Earth's magnetic field and also the actual ability to see them with clear nights and no cloud cover. As you can imagine this combination of events does not occur every night. They had put on a display on 4 previous nights but conditions were not perfect although some images were taken. At 12:30 am however in between snow showers and the lights from the Olafsvik harbour they put on a show that lasted for around 40 minutes.

From 4,500 Stills to 90 Seconds of Sky: My First Timelapse
From 4,500 Stills to 90 Seconds of Sky: My First Timelapse
I've been photographing storms for a while now, but this one's a bit different. This isn't about a single frame anymore — it's about time. After two weeks and roughly 3,500 miles chasing supercells across the Great Plains, I decided it was time to stop just freezing moments and actually try stitching them together. So here it is: my first ever timelapse, built from that trip, and honestly, I'm chuffed with how it turned out.

It's only 90 seconds long. Ninety seconds doesn't sound like much until you realise what went into it.

Chasing the Sky: 3,500 Miles Across America’s Great Plains
There are trips that ease you in gently, and there are trips that grab you by the collar and don’t let go. This was firmly the latter.
Over one extraordinary week I covered something in the region of 3,500 miles, looping out of Denver and across the great open belly of America — Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas and Kansas — before finally turning for home and rolling back across the Colorado plains. It was, without question, one of the most thrilling photographic adventures I’ve ever thrown myself into.
