 Not much to say about the picture. Took it in raw and just screwed around with the colors until I got what I liked. And oh yeah I used some adjustment layers (curves, selective color or something like that) a little to make the color of the northen lights a little more noticeable.

Composition and the flow of lines is what strikes me most here.

The city lights are distracting to me, but overall this is a good composition with excellent color. 8

my favorite of the aurora pictures I've seen so far - this actually uses the lights as a compositional element rather than simply taking a picture of the lights themselves and having the rest of the picture basically be 'extra.'
