      Description

      --Continuation of my Iceland Aurora series--
      During my trip to Iceland in August, I was blessed with an early aurora while staying in Grundarfjordur, right next to the iconic Kirkjufell, most probably Iceland's most famous mountain. I just wanted to go to bed, when I saw the green lights through the bedroom window. 5 minutes later I was rushing to my car and raced to this famous spot. I was completely alone in the darkness, surrounded only be the waterfall noise. And then it happened: Ray-like aurora beams surrounded Kirkjufell, while at the same time moonlight made it through the fog and clouds behind me and illuminated the top of the mountain. I was speechless and this was by far the best moment of a unique vacation.

      Equipment: The brand new Sony A6700 with the good old manual Samyang 12mm f2
