The northern lights happen to be one of my favourite natural phenomenon. I’m quite lucky to be able to see them frequently in my home of Saskatchewan, Canada.
As an avid aurora hunter I like to go out with friends, sometimes until sunrise, just to watch them dance across the sky. I also happen to be part of the Saskatchewan Aurora Hunter’s Facebook page, a group of enthusiastic Saskatchewanians passionate about capturing beautiful northern lights photos. Reaching out to them, I asked if they would be willing to share their photos on my blog.
*A big thank you to everyone who submitted photos to be considered. There were dozens of submissions and it was difficult to narrow the selection to only 30!
Here are 30 of the best northern lights photos taken by talented photographers from all around Saskatchewan.
