HOW TO Photograph the Northern Lights / Auroras 2024

In this video, I'll show you how to PHOTOGRAPH and PREDICT the northern lights also known as the Aurora Borealis or auroras. I'll tell you how they work, what settings and gear to use, what weather you want. I'll talk about the moons influence and light pollution. And I'll announce my first buyable editing tutorial. I hope you'll enjoy the content.
