It’s awesome to see, I saw the Borealis when I was stationed at Minot AFB. It’s one of those events you will never forget
This is truly stunning!
Very cool! It really is hit or miss with colors unless you do a whole lot of masking and jigs, but I am almost always pleasantly surprised by the end result. That one is really beautiful.
Excellent result!
Reminds me of the surprise of grinding a mineral for a jewelry setting (especially opal) where you don’t know the final glory until you polish it.
Many times it turns out even better than you image!
OK…that is amazing!
Beautiful outcome!
@ovm.steve and @shogun, you are both trailblazing in a stunning new direction for lasering.
Congratulations! and thank you for sharing and inspiring us.
Very cool looking. I grew up in an area where we often could see the northern lights. I haven’t seen them in person now in over 40 years.
Great engrave. One of these days I’ll get a chance to see the lights in their full glory. Living at only about 38N latitude it is extraordinarily rare to even catch a glimpse.
Was surprised about 10 years ago with a far less impressive look coming out my front door in MD. Weird thing was that this snapshot is due east, not north. Folks much further south than me could probably see the lights.
You created such a stunning effect!
Wow, that’s a cool pic.
The pic is blurry and not that impressive, but the surprise on walking out the front door and looking across my little field was really cool.
No doubt.
Oh man that is beautiful.
That’s beautiful please explain to me how you did this
Thank you. The process is fairly simple. @shogun got me started thinking when he shared these two posts last fall:
Sunrise Samurai (Experiment in Canvas)
These previous posts give show the steps I took to get to the final results. Take a look at them and give it a try.
If I can be of assistance, just let me know.
Fantastic! Wow, that is so nice!
For those of you who have not yet experienced the aurora borealis, I hope that when you do it’s in a quiet place. One of my best memories is watching the campfire die down on a canoe trip in a national park, gradually becoming aware of a sort of hissing sound, looking up and realizing it was the northern lights dancing across the sky. Then the wolves started howling across the lake…
Yeah… kudos on the evocative artwork!
Oh gosh, what an amazing piece! The subtle variations in the aurora came out perfectly.
Wonderful! just love the work you have done and thanks for showing the steps.
