Northern Lights

Some good friends called tonight at 10:30pm to tell us the northern lights were out.  We sure were grateful they called because what a show we had.  They were much brighter when we first came out with even some red colors.  After I figured out the settings on the camera these are the pictures I was able to get.  They were taken from an empty lot across the street from our block.  I was sitting down holding my breath trying to hold still since I didn’t have a tripod.  Some of the mild blur is from my shivering since it was 10 degrees and I was in my pajamas.
