One of the best things about living in the north is the night skies when the northern lights are active. This was taken a few miles from my house near an abandoned homestead. I was driving home and just so happened to have my camera and tripod in the truck with me as I drove by. I hopped out and snapped several long exposure shots of the scene before me.
I have other pictures of this little shack that I will post on later days, some at night using some light filling to more accentuate the homestead, but with the skies lit up like they were, that would be just a detraction from the main event.
Fun fact: There is a huge raven nest in the inside rafters of this little cabin that a pair of ravens use to rear their young every year. It is perhaps 4 foot in diameter and just awesome.
Not so fun fact: Time and Montana's elements have not been kind to this little cabin. In the time since I have taken this picture (4 years), this cabin has twisted on itself and is very near to collapse. I will be saddened the day that I drive by after some high winds or perhaps a particularlly heavy snowfall and see that it has given up.
