8K Ultra HD Northern Lights Timelapse Compilation from Churchill, Manitoba

I recently visited Churchill, Manitoba to go aurora chasing with some friends! We were there for seven nights and experienced aurora on almost all those nights - it was incredible! To get to Churchill, unless you want to spend $1400+ on a flight, you have to take a 16-hour train ride from Thompson, Manitoba and have someone pick you up at the station. Thankfully, we were staying with Ashley Park, who also runs an aurora chasing tour company out of Churchill, so we were good to go! By the way, if you are looking for the best in aurora chasing tours, make sure to check out her company, Parks Place, on Facebook!
For this timelapse I used the following gear:
Sony a7r2
Sony a7iv
Sony a7s
Sony 14mm f/1.8 GM
Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Zero-D
Sony 20mm f/1.8 G
Tamron 35mm f/1.4 SP
I processed everything in Lightroom and LRTimelapse and edited everything together with sound using Adobe After Effects. It was a lot of work, but in the end, I think it paid off! If you enjoyed the film, please let me know, and if you want to see other content, let me know as well! I am not transitioning solely to auroras, but it something I enjoy and I think it fits on my channel with my other astrophotography videos!

This video has been the most magical thing I've seen on KZbin in the last 5 years that I felt the need to comment on it. The last time I made a comment on this platform was 5 years ago. Thank you for making this video along with my day. Watching this made me feel like I was in heaven.

Thanks!

[@astrodysseus]

I see you sticked with the Tamron 35mm f1.4 and not the Sigma 40mm 1.4 :) I imagine for auroras, pinpoint perfect sharpness in the corner is probably not the most important and the Tamron is lighter.. was that the reason ? For pure astro / milkyway, I guess the choice would still go to Sigma 40mm 1.4 Btw, your review on lenses is the only one which matched my own observations and experiences; kudo :)

[@wuziq]

that was rad

[@Apalapse]

Hell yeah, thanks!
