Split Rock Serendipity

An image I've been dreaming of for years! This view of Split Rock Lighthouse in MN faces more east - so Aurora activity needs to be quite good to reach over. Well, on May 11th, that was delivered in spades! I chose a more narrow focal length on purpose - as I wanted the lighthouse to be a main part of the image. The colors were unreal. I had a hard time picking what frame to go with - but in the end picked the one with more blue and purple because that is more unusual.
