Nordlys (aurora), over Trondheim

Aurora or northern lights called nordlys in Norwegian. An aurora is a natural light display in the sky, especially in the high latitude regions, caused by the collision of solar wind and magnetospheric charged particles with the high altitude atmosphere.

It is easy to see it in higher latitudes in Norway but not very often in Trondheim position. I wanted to take a picture where I can see the city as well. On 12th of september the aurora index was so high and it was very nicely visible over Trondheim as well. the tower in the left side of the picture called Ttyholt tårnet which has a rotating restaurant in top. From there you can see almost entire city.

Bakklandet, those beautiful wood houses of Trondheim

Bakklandet is a neighborhood of Trondheim, Norway. It lies on the east side of the river Nidelva between Bakke Bridge and the Old Town Bridge. The area is dominated by small, wooden houses and narrow streets. It is among the major tourist attractions in the city.The streets of this part of the town are narrow with some very famous cafe, bars and some traditional butics. This picture has been taken by my 24-70 mm with ND filter on it. Using ND filter made the clouds smoother and the color of sunset is brighter. It was raining just before I took the picture as a reason you can see a small pond in the middle of the frame and a little reflection of the houses. Indeed there were some people walking around in the street but because of long shot they are not appearing in the frame. This is actually very useful tool in order to eliminate not needed elements.

Capture sunset with Samyang 14 mm

This is my first attempt of using samyang 14 mm. it is absolutely sharp and easy to use. The lens has a big rounded glass in front so it is not possible to use a normal filters such as UV and ND(See the photo below). In my opinion it is a downside of the lens.  It has also a barrel distortion which may/may not be corrected in lightroom or other photography softwares. The picture below is located very close to where we are living close to Granåsen gård.
