The Night the World Shared

from $360.00

The night the world shared. May 11th 2024.

I had been waiting for clear skies and settled weather for 3 years to capture this image of the Milky Way stretching over the mountains of New Zealand's central plato - Mt Tongariro, Mt Ruapehu and Mt Ngauruhoe.

The pinnacle of this trip was the KPI 9 aurora that was seen by so many around the world. This final image was shot around 5:30 in the morning, the main intensity of the aurora having died down by this stage. What I love about this image is that I also captured a rare Stable Auroral Red Arc (SAR arc), as well as the aurora Australis and milky way stretching over the mountains.

The final image is 7 comprised of 70 stacked images
