A Cold Scene.

[Ern007]

Northern Lights - This is as light as I could get the painting. New camera did not help, with or without flash.

[sassy59]

I love the look of the painting Ern and wishing you well with your new camera. Xxxx❤️

[Ern007 in reply to sassy59]

Thank you Carole. I tried every room with phone, then used camera - That is as good as it get taking pics at night. xxx

[Alberta56]

Intriguing, even if the camera was uncooperative. Your paintings are always interesting. xxx

[Ern007 in reply to Alberta56]

Thank you. I used to use my smartphone - But with poor results, so bought a camera, little better. I think in future will have to use daylight xx

I would love to see the Northern Lights in reality. Unlikely where I live.

[watergazer]

Lovely work Ern. I’d like to see the northern lights x

[Ern007 in reply to watergazer]

Thank you watergazer

[Nula2]

Great painting Ern, are there people looking at the lights in the background? xxx

[Ern007 in reply to Nula2]

Thank you Nula 2 - thet are you what you want them to be. could be very distant trees. Why they are there is to create a sense of distance. xx

[Nula2 in reply to Ern007]

Ah thank you. To me they are people watching the lights 🙂👍xxx

[Ern007 in reply to Nula2]

Well Nula2 Thank You, - They could be people I suppose people would create the same effect. xx

[Nula2 in reply to Ern007]

I like the idea that it's people looking at the lights with a shared sense of wonderment 😊xxx

[HungryHufflepuff in reply to Nula2]

I had wondered the same thing. I like the explanation that they’re whatever you want them to be. To me, they’re a herd of reindeer.

[Germantara]

Nice picture thanks for sharing

[Ern007 in reply to Germantara]

Thank you Germantra, welcome.

How wonde4ful that you have painting as a creative expression. The only thing creative I can think of is getting rid of STUFF. Some of this is not wanting ny kids to have to deal with it when i'm gone, but more is just how GOOD it feels to have less stuff around me!

[Ern007 in reply to Mittens1519]

Thank you. I like to get rid of stuff, I don't ever seem to get there. I take your point, I like to make sure there are no loose ends.

[Threecats]

I like it a lot, Ern. I would love to see the northern lights but too far south here. Mind you I hope we don’t have similar snowy weather next week!

[Ern007 in reply to Threecats]

Thank you Threecats, I agree, no snow for real. I have another I painted and the sky is bluer and is clearer, I will post that in the future .

[Patk1]

Thanks for sharing this Ern.its v welcome.I've seen photos people have posted recently,on social media, of glimpses locally in high spots, of the wonderful auraura borealis.

The best view of the space station and constellation i had,was a few yrs ago,high up in the mountains,at a friend's house in Spain.

Yr painting reminded me of that xx

[Ern007 in reply to Patk1]

Thank you Pat , I wish I had been up those Spanish mountains, what a view xx

[Patk1 in reply to Ern007]

Yes was amazing Ern.clear sky.just us+ the sky x
