Got these last night at 9:30 PM on the northern coast of Alaska. -10° in the wind but well worth the cold hands. My first attempt at capturing northern lights.

Rance, what an enormous delight to find these. They are wonderful! Did you use digital?

And hope your hands are warm now.

Wow. Those are way cool. I wonder what the Indian legends say about them?

Rance · 10-05-2007, 06:51 PM

Yes I used digital. Manual focus, asa (or whatever) on 1600, hand held in the wind, and totally clueless!

Clue-less seems to have worked.
