- #nebulaphotography #arcticastrophotography #astrophotographyinthecold Astrophotography of the Elephant's trunk nebula from Raktenjávrre in Ultevis Mountain Forest Reserve at 67°N in the Arctic Part of Swedish Lapland. The Elephant's Trunk Nebula is an exciting target in the constellation Cepheus.
This is probably the most adventurous astrophoto channel on TH-cam! Follow me out to wonderful remote dark locations near the Arctic Circle in Swedish Lapland.
The polar winter is harsh and extremely cold, but the dark skies are among the best globally, and nature is spectacular. But most of all, this is my home, where I do this wonderful hobby!
If you like my videos, please subscribe and join me out in the harsh polar night!

Wow! Absolutely loving your videos. I will no longer complain about going out to check my telescopes in my driveway here in California. 😀
Thank you! This evening was actually quite "warm".. the evening after this. That was cold.. :)
Haha! Same here!
Love the style of these videos, well done. Don’t you worry about getting stuck, what car are you driving ?
Thank you for watching! I drive a BMW 320D. Not the best car to drive in snow.. but this trip I tried the first 50m of the road, and it was never close to the limit, so I continued. I have good studded tires, and use to have snow chains with me. In worst case I can call some friend, but it has never happened. Yet.. 😀
Greetings from Toronto Canada! Another great video! Your image at the end appears for only one second before TH-cam ads fill the screen.. Display the full image just a bit longer is my humble suggestion..
Thanks, I will do that in future edits!! Thanks for the tips!
Wonderful videos and images! I presume all the reindeer (we call them caribou in Canada) are part of managed herds owned by Saami? I sometimes photograph from Grasslands National Park in Saskatchewan where there are bison roaming, though all within a fenced park. Clear skies!
Tnank you! Yes, there are no wild reindeer here, they are all owned by Sámi. Jokkmokk is actually one of the centras for the Sámi culture. Would love to visit Canada, it looks very beautiful! Clear skies!
Another incredible video 😍 I have shared it on twitter and I hope that's OK! Your work must be seen by more people 👏👏👏
Thank you for watching, Scott and thank you for the share!!
Stunning result! So well done! 👏👏
Thanks for watching! :)
I definitely have Bortle envy.
The seeing could be marvellous! :)
I hope you will continue. your videos are awesome. may be with some time laps in wide field from a bortle1!
your videos are not long enough !!!
@@alexsigalas3555 Thank you! I will continue! Actually, I began to do a timelapse when I was out shooting this video but got frost on the lens after about 100 shots. :) Will try again later!
Congratulations!! You must be the first "extreme" astrophotographer. Your passion for capturing the beauty of the universe is special among your fellowship of light collectors.
Thank you! Maybe I'm about to invent a new genre!? 😀 "Extreme astrophotography".. It actually began with northern light photography, and it has evolved!
Wow, those aerial clips are so so nice! Great intro!
Thank you!
Simply my favorite astrophotography Channel to date!!! great job guy! keep pushing the limit!
Sorry, late answer but thanks a lot! Unfortunately I have been quite busy this winter but I hope I will be able to film soon again! :)
So beautiful!
Hope to make it to Baxter State Forest, Maine this summer. Believe it's bortle 2. A bit envious of your clear skies. NJ winter weather is horrible.
Thank you James! I lived in the south of Sweden a couple of years. The winters were grey and wet. Suppose it's as the NJ winter? Hope you get to Maine - bortle 2 is great!
@@NorthernPanorama trying to plan for July around New moon phase so fingers crossed. Mountain range weather very unpredictable though. Out tonight trying to capture M81 and M82 with my little Redcat unguided through DSLR. Lots of clouds passing as storm gets ready to come in. Keep your videos coming. They're very inspiring.
@@jameswoods1939 Sounds like demanding conditions there in NJ! For July, there have to be sun observation here due to the midnight sun. :) The darkness returns in late August! Stay tuned, more videos are coming!
@@NorthernPanorama look forward to them. Enjoy
Brilliant, really enjoy your videos..Maybe you should offer photography and night photography holiday tours. Sausages looked really tasty...🤪
Thank you! We will see.. maybe in the future! :) I' m a bit positively surprised by all comments and reactions! The sausage was quite tasty out there, but I should have brought mustard!!
That was a good one. I'm not interested in stars but...you make it interesting!
The size of that sun, 1200-1700 times of our sun... Amazing!

Thanks a lot Matti! Maybe time to buy an astrophotography rig soon? :)
@@NorthernPanorama Hahahahaa... I think my ordinary camera bag is heavy.
:-)
You really have a disadvantage at guiding having to lower the south leg of the tripod. This and the cold makes everything even more difficult. Combining with nature video makes it very interesting and also the preparation of location, temperatures. Bortle one location must be fantastic. You don’t need any filter, as the asi 2600 has the IR filter built in. You sorted your gear out well for your approach. Looking forward for your next adventure!
Yes, last year I was close to "throw in the towel", but everything got a lot more easy with the asiair and the EAF. And I have to learn from experience how the gear handle the cold and learn routines for how I run everything! Problem solving gets a lot more tough in the cold! And yes bortle 1 is fantastic. I could shoot more close to the town at bortle 3-4, but I like to get out and for me it's also a nature experience. Maybe it's a new genre.. "adventure astrophotography" :)
Sending some warmth from NYC. I like the scenic snow covered trees in the background as you set up Respect!
Thank you again Christian! Yes, it's pretty scenic here this time of the year! Could need the warmth from NYC! 😀
Lmao a little bit cold? Mate if it was half of that in the UK we would be forced to go into another lockdown. Like thousands of people would die.
:) We use to say "at least there are no mosquitos" and now I can add that these temps is 100% covid-free too.
@@NorthernPanorama I used to think that mosquitos wernt found in the cold. until I heard that Alaska has the highest number of mosquitos in the world.
Another great video David...the landscape is absolutely stunning! Quick question, if you drop the south leg of your EQ6 mount (making it not level), doesn't it affect your tracking?
Thank you (again) :) It was a fear I had before I bought the mount. I asked at cloudynight and became calmer, and my experience is that it does not affect. However, I have not really used it south of the arctic circle, so I can not compare.. The total error in phd2 use to vary between 0.7-1.2 and most important; I got round stars. No problem with 5 min subs.
Wow, 67 degrees north latitude! Combine that with your a b and c roll footage along with your drone, and this is truly a spectacular astrophotography experience. Thank you!
@@JosephConroy Thank you! The surroundings are quite unique here, so I thought I wanted to show them. And that it's possible to do AP at these high latitude! :)
Loving your videos 👍🏻 lovely image too.
Thanks a lot for your comment!! :)
Another warm video from you, even though it was cold where you were :-) Loved your experience with the reindeer too - truly magical and peaceful. Great drone footage, and time-lapse also. I had bortle 2 last weekend under new moon, decided to drive south of Sydney 2 hours to benefit, and it really was awesome. I really look forward to your next video :-) Cheers!
Thank you!! It's pretty magical from time to time! :) But I can imagine that Australia is that too. Just to experience a night sky when it's warm outside is something I think is special. 😀
Hi! what a pleasant surprise to see another video of yours, I am sooooo amazed to see the beauty of your country! I love the drone video you took and the sky view at 6:40 into the video is impressive, I hear you when you say you love to be all alone with the beauty of the sky!! sausage and bread is called hot dogs in my part of the world...hehe I bet the milky way looks fantastic, please take a shot with your dslr and share next time!!
Clear skies, I wish you the best, stay safe, enjoy life.
Thank you! We have hot dogs here too, but now i used a thin bread and a little thicker sausage that i rolled into the bread. :) But almost a hot dog! Will take more dslr images next time!
@@NorthernPanorama in my country, Guatemala, we have a version of hotdog where you add avocado and cabbage, its tasty. btw my daughter went to Stockholm a couple of years back, she loved it. My son went to Iceland but he was not lucky the night they went to see northern lights did not show. Looking forward to your adventures! Clear skies!
@@edwinsanchez1167 That sounds tasty!! When it comes to northern light, you have to be a little bit lucky and although I see it quite often, the most spectacular ones appears only a few times each season. And it could be cloudy too! I will do a northern light video when it's good conditions!
David, tonight it will be the first clear night for me since before xmas, the weather will be at -13 Celsius, but your video has inspire me to go out and brave it out besides it just my back yard lol, I noticed you don’t protect your face skin, don’t you get frost byte or something?
Clear skies!! Be well!
