    These aurorae were so prominent that we even saw them in Ireland. I was fortunate to see a full display in Canada about 20 years ago (at 4am in the winter). Great video and very glad you were finally able to test this out.

    Absolutely love the honest portrayal of just how difficult it is to capture video in EXTREME low light - I am curious to know with your attempt to capture video using the Mavic3, where the lights out of focus, or is that the way the lights truly look? - I also own a Mavic3 & understand the difficulty in low light video & how you have to think on your feet so as to make the most of very rare events - GREAT JOB! 👏

    • @JakeSloan
