Thank you, I just use a GoPro and am very happy with the results.

it was a great trip, enjoy your time there! I appreciate the feedback.

Thank you, it was a great trip!

I don't remember exactly, something like 3 or 4 nights of good viewing.....I do remember one real cold night (3F), the stars were beautiful but no lights that particular night. And yes, it is dependent on the sun activity, and typically takes like a day for the particles to get to earth so they can give somewhat of a prediction on possible active nights. Check out swpc.noaa.gov for the NOAA maps. Some of the best shots we got were from our balcony, however up on the forward deck the ships lighting was converted to red so that you could walk around safely but the red light would no impede your night vision. Note - the shots in this movie were shot with the iPhone 13 Pro....having a good night sensitive cell phone is great in that it can help you see the lights and get great pics. An SLR would require setup and a tripod and we quickly gave up on trying to use our Cannon SLR.

I was using an iPhone 13 Pro for the Aurora pictures. The lights are fairly faint, you can see they are out there but without a time lapse of 2 to 3 seconds you can’t catch the detail. The nice thing about the iPhone is that it takes a series photos and stitches them together. All were done by just holding the phone as still as I could and it did the rest. I tried my wife’s SLR but without a tripod that would just not work. Thanks for the compliments, these were both great trips. Note: the iPhone was also good to pan the sky’s looking for the lights, it does very well at night!

The stabilizers help, but in that big a storm the ship is still going to move around quite a bit. When I was out and around the ship there were a lot of people just staying in their room.

Sorry I missed your note, please do look over some of my newer comments above.

Thank you!

We dressed with nice shirts and slacks, some had jackets….but not overly formal.

Thank you, was a great cruise. We did a number of free tours that are offered during the day, then added to that tours we paid for to go out to see the lights. Some nights were very good, some were w/o any lights....ironically the best we saw (in my opinion) were in Tromso and from the ship. The night tours got in late, 11pm or later, for those Viking placed some sandwiches, deserts, and even a bottle of wine in the room each time were were out so late and missed dinner.......a real nice touch. Viking is a very nice and highly recommended. Enjoy!

@@williamwerner thanks, go with Viking for couple trips and next one in coming March. Seems a lot excursion doing same things in different places. I would like to try dog sledding, igloo,ice hotel. Want helicopters but is very expensive! Any advice?

Read through the descriptions of the various tours and go see things that interest you the most.....
