After working as a photographer for 39 years, I have no idea what makes a good photograph. You either learn it or not. But one thing I do know for sure is that the twilight in Iceland is the most beautiful at this time of year. You get the northern lights as a bonus after dark after a colourful sunset if you are lucky. There is no magic to this picture, except to be in the right place at the right time… with a good tripod. The lens is 35mm on an FF machine, the exposure time was 3.2 sec, the aperture F4.5, ISO was set to 100. It could not be simpler.
