Northern Lights in Þingvellir National Park (part 3)

A few days later, back in the same place, this time I checked my focus and made sure my lens was properly set. The show went on for hours, but I was too comfortable inside my sleeping bad (and too lazy) to capture everything I saw. Laying on my back, I simply fell asleep watching them, then woke up again to watch some more...

This time the Northern Lights were stronger

But as it is very often the case, they went away for a while

So I had time to set up the tent

And they came back and danced for hours, so I made my first timelapse, from the (relative) warmth of my sleeping bag

This timelapse is made of 38 photos taken over half an hour, put together using Openshot
