These photos were taken over 2 weeks in Iqaluit Nunavut while I worked the midnight shift at the airport.

Coordinates: 63.7543, -68.5497
Camera: Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5, f/3.3, Exposure 2.5s, ISO-100.

If any body wants the higher resolution shots I will come up with a way to get them online. Thanks for viewing.

This next group of photos from the 11th and 17th have higher exposure times of up to 8 seconds and f stops of 3.3 to 4.9. My camera doesn't have manual settings for exposure and fstop but I am very happy with the automatic setting for these kinds of shots, I am not a professional by any means.

Great pics! Thanks for posting and welcome to the forum.

We're all a little quiet now as we're 'out of season', but there's a number of us who still pop on regularly so your efforts wont go un-noticed. Come spring next year this becomes a much busier place!
