Aurora at Caddo Lake: An Unexpected Texas Surprise

Northern Lights at Caddo Lake Texas and Louisiana

Last week I traveled to Uncertain, Texas, to co-lead my annual photography workshop at Caddo Lake. I’ve grown familiar with this place over the past four years, but it never loses its magic.

Situated between Capitol Reef to the west, the Henry Mountains to the south, the San Rafael Swell to the north and the San Rafael desert to the east.

This causes a challenge in the hope of getting a pristine photo of this location.
