Enchant

The journey to capture this image was physically challenging but worth it. Initially, I planned a mountain hike to photograph the Milky Way, but I ended up with an awesome Aurora display.

The hike through Craigieburn Forest, in Canterbury, aiming for a spot at 1,600m altitude as the sun set, was tough. With a 30 kg backpack containing photography gear, a tent, and other essentials, the journey was physically demanding. It was pretty cold, especially as the temperature dropped below freezing, not to mention random gusts of wind. My gear included my tent, three cameras, and four lenses – taken up so I could shoot timelapse video as well.

Pleased to say this was a 2023 Aurora Photographer of the Year image!
