The Northern Lights from Bainbridge Island, Washington

Adam and I were lucky enough to see the northern lights from our own front yard over the weekend. Definitely not something I ever thought I’d be able to say! We just got back from Norway a few weeks ago where we were so convinced we’d get a chance to see them… but, no luck there. We were pretty disappointed.

Then we come home to the US and see them from our house?! Funny how that works out sometimes.

I took a bunch of photos on my phone, but I also set my camera up on a tripod and snapped a few that way, too. I thought I’d share my camera favorites from the night!

It was pretty wild how you couldn’t see a whole lot with just your eyes, but our cameras picked up all sorts of vivid, beautiful colors.

The purples and greens were so pretty. My phone wasn’t able to capture the stars like my camera was. I think I might have to get some of these printed and hung up around the house. :)

Okay, okay. I think that’s enough, haha. Were you able to see them from where you live??

As always, thanks for reading! xo, Amanda
