Superbe, I like the wide-angle look of this image, it makes it much more dynamic.

Fantastic shot!

I took a load of pretty poor images, looking back, of Aurora Australis when I was working down in the Antarctic, camera technology has come on so much it's incredible! I'm off to Iceland for a couple of weeks early September, when was this shot taken?

Very pretty!  Not sure about the heavy vignetting in the upper corners but it definitely has a 'surreal' look to it!

One of the best images of the Aurora I've seen!

A slightly tweaked version to brighten the sky - does it work?

I'll stick with the first then  :)
Thanks for the comments. I took this at the end of March this year; managed to see this phenomena after 4 visits to Iceland! Used a Samyang 14mm lens on Canon EOS 5DII. Exposure was 20 seconds at f2.8, 800 ISO.
