Northern Lights and Sprites

Northern Lights and Sprites

I was out early on the morning of July 4th trying to chase the aurora when I saw distant lightning out near Pittsburg, PA (roughly 100 miles north of me) and while setting up my camera I saw a sprite on the live view on my Nikon Z8. After setting up an intervalometer I was able to capture two frames with sprites- this being the better of the two.

Settings:
- 3 Second Exposure
- f/2.2
- ISO 3200
- 20mm focal length
