- Hey guys!
In today's video we're going to talk about several tips on how to see the Aurora Australis. (Southern lights!) Many people may not be aware, but the southern lights are viewable from New Zealand and Australia. In fact we have both seen the Aurora Australis in New Zealand and the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) in Iceland. So today we thought we would share our experience with how to photograph the Aurora Australis (and how to see them)!
We hope you enjoy the southern lights photography tips! :)

Thanks for the info guys
That's so cool you saw it in NZ. We're yet to see an aurora. We've spent time in the southern most regions of Tassie, NZ, Victoria, the sub-Antarctic islands and Antarctica and missed it every time. 😂 Maybe in one day 😀
Ah it definitely requires a bit of luck! It's definitely possible, it's just a matter of time and waiting for a little bit more aurora activity. 😁
Unfortunately there hasn't been much activity this year though! 😓
Very helpful thanks
another one to add is, wait till closer to solar maximum that will give you heaps more opportunity to the southern lights as they happen more often. these last few years have been heading into solar minimum which is why we haven't seen bugger all lately :( butt good news is its trending up from here :)
Hey your video really help to learn about viewing the southern lights. I had a query regarding seeing the lights… did you carry any specific devices other than cameras in order to make the viewing more vivid and prominent?
Google the Russell Mcpherron effect. It basically states there are better chances around the equinox (March and September). That's why the aurora charter flights leave around that time. :)
Super interesting! We'd actually heard that autumn was a particularly good time to go aurora hunting 😁
Hey I've been running out at 3am in my robe, lol. You gotta go what you gotta go!
Hahaha, I was definitely in pyjamas and a coat on the night we saw them! 😂 - Kayleigh
Is there also a southern aurora in patagonia argentina and southern chile in relation to the geographical location of patagonia which is the southernmost on earth?
Thank you for this video!! May I ask the most helpful Facebook groups/links you joined?
Sure! The FB groups we're part of are "Aurora Australia" & "Southern Hemisphere Aurora Group." :)
