Hi all,

After posting my Aurora Australis image http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=97689 I was actually contacted by the head creative director at Adobe saying how much he liked my work and that I had won his "prize" :eyepop: Long story short, I now have a full legit version of the latest Lightroom and I will be a guest of his when he is in Melbourne for the Adobe Eclipse Tour http://www.adobe.com/au/special/eclipsetour/index.html
Woohoo :D

Anyway. Now I have this new program to learn and I thought I would christen it with a time lapse from the night before I did my aurora photos
124423 124424

I have a lot to learn and a long way to go to get to Alex and Colin level. You can view the short vid here

Very very nice indeed. You're getting me inspired to get out more over summer after 'hiding' over winter.

Thank you very much Wayne :D I hope you get out soon. Winter tends to be my peak imaging time. I hate waiting until 10 or 11 PM during summer for it to get dark enough

I reckon that pic is one of your best in term of variety, framing and colors. It's got it all in one. Super cool. :thumbsup:

The video may be short but it is exceptionally nice!
It must have been a great thrill to see such lovely colours in your images.
Well done with the Adobe "prize"!!!

Cheers,
Alex

Thank you so much Alex :D Means a lot coming from you. Your work has in part inspired me to give a bit more attention to doing timelapse. Hopefully produce a longer movie real soon.
Yeah it was awesome to see the aurora appear on my screen for the first time. Never caught it before that night of the timelapse.
