Aurora Borealis, July 31– August 1, 2024

Aurora Borealis: vivid purple pillars above a green band; I'm standing in front of two pines with the lights in the background

I got out to my spot about 11:30pm, just in time for the show to ramp up. When it start­ed to slow down, I packed my cam­eras into the car, get­ting ready to head home since it was a school night. But as I was col­laps­ing my tripods, the auro­ra sud­den­ly flared up again, and I scram­bled to get my cam­eras re-mount­ed and click­ing away again. I think it was worth stay­ing up a lit­tle late.

Inter­est­ed in prints of my pho­tos? Let me know, and we can work some­thing out.
