Loading ...Great Fairbanks Northern Lights Video
November 19, 2009 | Tags: Northern Lights, Video, Winter
This video is made from a series of over 350 northern lights photos taken in Fairbanks. This method seems to capture the movement of the aurora a little better than the much more common time-lapse videos.
Thanks to Carol Falcetta for capturing these images and producing this video.
Congratulations Winners!
