Nice show just north of town tonight so took a few shots. Tried 3200 ISO for 20 seconds.  forgot that I had the exposure on minus .7.  Fun time and hope to see more to practice on again.   4th one is straight up. big dipper in last 2. I see I had the fstop at 10,  forgot to change that also. So many things to remember. gotta get some cards to remember this stuff. lol

I like the silhouette of the big tree in the foreground! I heard there has been quite the solar storm.  I'm not sure how long that hangs around, But I'll be an hour north of St Cloud in a couple of days.  Maybe I can catch a glimpse.

I was out last night as well, it has been a big storm. Might try again tonight. You found a nice location with that large tree!

thx, just a few miles to the north we spotted the tree.  might drive around this afternoon to find another spot to try also.

Very nice, sorry I missed it.  Been years since I saw a good display like that.

best I have ever seen this far south. Pretty neat when you can see them straight up and to the south a bit. I wish I would have known how to take pics when I lived in Alaska 40 years ago.
