Filipino landscape photographer Edwin Martinez has dedicated the past five years of his career to capturing the magic of the aurora borealis, also commonly known as the Northern Lights. He's traveled as far as Iceland, Norway, New Zealand, and Canada in the hopes of capturing nature's work of art. Luckily for him, the lights have come out to play.
Martinez ocassionally hosts guided photo tours in these far-off locations as well, giving others the rare chance to experience the lights and other majestic sceneries as he does.
Here are some of his most breathtaking shots:
This shot was taken in Iceland last December. "Stop, linger, and wonder," he captioned the post, "One of the many wonders that makes me thankful for being able to experience it."
Martinez was also able to take this mystical photo from the Vatnajokull Glacier in Iceland.
