Few phenomena in nature are as beautiful, intriguing and mesmerizing as the Northern Lights. In this workshop, astronomer and photographer Dr. William Gutsch will show and explain how explosive eruptions on the sun and holes in the sun’s atmosphere can lead to dazzling displays of the Northern and Southern Lights on earth.
He will also give tips on when and where to travel to see the aurora, as well as suggestions for choosing the right equipment to take the best still and time lapse images. Pictures from his recent trip to shoot the Northern Lights in the Arctic will be shown.
In addition, Dr. Gutsch will also speak about an upcoming photo opportunity of a lifetime: a Northern Lights Photo Adventure in Tromso, "The Aurora Capital of the World"! Click here for more information about the adventure.
