These are fantastic! We are headed to Alaska very soon to hopefully grab some shots. We are debating a lens warmer. Any advice on the need for it?

I have them and use them, primarily September through November. Depending on which area of Alaska you’re heading would dictate the need for one. If you’ll be coastal.. it would be worth bringing one. If to the interior, than most likely not needed. That said, there’s certainly no downside to having one. You will go through a few battery banks if shooting more than a few hours, which I find cumbersome. Personally, I like the Zeiss lens wipes. Since they’re iso based, they remove frost if I see any starting to form.. that solves any issues I may currently encounter.

R5 mk1 and R5 mk2 for bodies. Lenses are Laowa 10mm f/2.8 and Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art. Mk1 with Sigma is my primary setup.

Great setup!

I had the Sigma 14mm F1.8 lens before and it's a fabulous lens for astro. (a bit heavy though)

For a long period of time, Sigma 14mm F1.8 was the only wide angle fast prime available. (until Sony released the Sony 14mm F1.8 GM, but still, only available on Sony)

I cannot think of an word that would better describe these compositions than those already said!
Just fantastic compositions all!

One of my mentors in the military was a native Alaskan.
He told me of the many different names the indigenous people of Alaska called the aurora!

These are spectacular!!

Amazing! Would love to hear how you shot them, we get visible aurora fairly often here in VT, though very rarely this dramatic.

These are truly unreal -- amazing images!
My wife and I went to Alaska over 10 years ago, and traveled all over the place. I didn't do any night sky photography, but photographed so many other amazing things, I still marvel at all those images. I've had some amazing trips to amazing places in my 78 yrs., but the Alaska Trip was far and away the best travel experience I've ever had.
Thanks for sharing these wonderful scenes!
