一直聽極光之美，一直沒有完整地見識過，今天見到，果然震撼！
在挪威之北用了六個月時間，多時在零下三十度，浪費了約六千張硬照，選擇出來作成幾分鐘的 video 。

這位攝影師拍得很美, 當然也由於他用了六個月時間去捕捉, 及是從六千多張選出來的. 我們自己從格陵蘭花幾天時間去等待, 而只有一晚拍到的, 無論質與量也有很大距離. 但北極光實在很美, 很神祕, 很浪漫. 我們很感恩能看到, 也希望大家都有這個機會. 南極光普通人是很難有機會看到的了, 只能從南極科研站所拍到的傳看. 因為我們能去南極最多只有在11至3月, 一般是12月至2月, 那是南極的夏季, 也是永晝時光, 既然沒黑夜, 就算有南極光也肉眼難看到, 而其餘日子雖夜長, 但既是冰封難入, 亦是極度嚴寒, 很難生存, 又諻論拍極光照.

Ok folks, this is it. Here is my first video project.
It is a video of the Northern Lights created using stills (stop motion). All sequences are shot in or close to Tromsø in Northern Norway.
I have spent over 6 months collecting footage for this, I have shot approx 50000 stills to choose from in making this video. A goal for me has been to try to preserve the real-time speed of the northern lights, or come as close as possible, and present it the way I experienced it, instead of the northern lights just flashing over the sky in the blink of an eye. It may work on other time-lapse videos with fast moving clouds and sunsets etc, but with the northern lights in focus, it should be presented in it's true speed to reflect her beauty, imo. In the video I have put together a collection of slow moving auroras in the woods, over the mounatins, in the city, in the foreshore, reflected in the sea, with some of the most spectacular and strongest auroral outbreaks seen in many years. Included here is a coronal outbreak, in which I am particularly happy to present, since it is very difficult to get on stills, even worse on "film".
I got a fantastic soundtrack made for the video by local musical talent in Tromsø; Per Wollen. A Huge thanks goes to you Per obviously! The audio track "Aurora in the sky" can be found on iTunes.
A huge thank goes to Jay and dynamicperception.com/ for making the most awesome timelapse gear available, and who made some of the sequences in this video possible!
The video shown here on Vimeo is 1280x720. It may be also available in 1920x1080 and Digital Cinema HD 4K. Contact me for higher resolution. Video may not be used commercially or public without permission.
Footage has been prepared for viewing in sRGB color space since this is the space most people use. Hence wide gamut displays may display colors wrong, especially green ones which the aurora mostly appears in, since the most clipping in color space when downscaling to sRGB is done in the green color area.
Hope you like the video, more info about me:
