So despite the bad forecast for heavy clouds last night, at about 10:00pm I saw the weather forecasts change for the better. The clouds were moving out quickly so I jumped in the car and headed North. I Went North towards NewBrook Alberta and about 12:30am they showed up. The lights became brighter and faded in waves until about 3:30am when they quit. It was an amazing experience even though they were still far to the North of me. If the clouds and magnetic forecasts come into alignment again I'll be heading North!
I would LOVE to get behind a lake so I could get the reflection of the lights in the water, and being a somewhat calm night last night I headed for a nice lake only to be reminded I was in northern Canada in March... Snow covered ice isn't reflective... D'oh!
Technical data: D200 17-55 2.8 ISO 100 - the exposures were between 30 seconds and 1 minute each. The moonlight helped light the landscape.
I didn't do much to these photos yet, just some minor cropping and brightness adjustments.
