Churchill photographer Alex De Vries – Magnifico recently had these images selected by Manitoba Travel for promotion of the provincial tourism initiative. These incredible northern lights shots have been featured before by churchillpolarbears.org though a second showing never hurts One of the most prolific aurora borealis seasons in recent history produced numerous magical photos of the northern lights. These are surely a few of the best. Enjoy!

Alex De Vries – Magnifico took these cool photos of icy pressure ridges and the northern lights in Churchill. Just when we thought we had seen the most epic combinations of northern lights and various features on the ground, these shots magically juxtapose the packed ice and snow with the aurora in the Arctic sky. The season continues to shine on. Enjoy!

Here are a few photo gems by Alex De Vries – Magnifico’s from this past northern lights season. Alex kept us busy here at churchillpolarbears.org with ample shots from the long aurora season in Churchill. Every Natural Habitat Adventures group was fortunate to view the most incredible northern lights displays in recent history. By any comparison this was completely successful winter season! Until next season enjoy these parting shots!

Another superb northern lights shot by Churchill photographer Alex De Vries – Magnifico. Many people have the misconception that a full moon obstructs good aurora activity and thus photography of the incredible phenomena that fills the northern sky fairly regularly this time of year. If the light is managed correctly the moon used as a point of reference can take an image to another level.Natural Habitat Adventure’s final group of the season is in Churchill just in time for Aurora Fest and hopefully more magical aurora borealis to finish up the season. Enjoy!
