Wow, kinda puts mine to shame from Sunday night :cry: Those are really great shots.

What a show :shock:

Did the pics come out that green, or have you edited them a little? Either way they're great pics. I am amazed you could get the pic in the city with the church tower. I've tried taking pics of northen light where I live, but there are a few lamp posts, and that is too much light for my camera to handle.

I especially like the pics where the light reflects in the water - very cool 8)

That's awesome!!! I never get to see stuff like that in MS. I'm lucky to see swamp gas or flaming redneck gas. hahaha

Try shifting the white balance towards 2000-2500 K

Awsome pics.......I have one question though that has plagued me for awhile now about northern lights. What kinda exposure times are these? I've never seen northern lights so I sometimes wonder what they look like in person compared to what I see in peoples pics.
