After many years, I finally decided to take some pictures of the Eagle Harbor Lighthouse. I’ve seen tons of pictures of this lighthouse with the northern lights as its backdrop; so I’ve always chosen to go elsewhere.
When exploring for a place to go and photograph, I decided I would check out the lighthouse (mainly because most of the unique places from where I want to shoot the Aurora are fairly remote and I had only a short window of time before I needed to be home and in bed - I knew work was going to be busy the next day).
In any case, what a fortune to have been there. Most pics I’ve seen of this lighthouse with aurora are looking northward. But this northern lights display was so intense and expansive, I was able to get this view looking southeast.
What a night.
