Nice burst of aurora activity right after dusk. I haven't seen the aurora in almost two years, it was a beautiful sight. Foreground thawing snowbanks, not the most scenic but I had to act quick to catch the aurora.

This was near the midnight hour March 26th. One view is looking south towards Fairbanks, with the city light spilling up to the overhead clouds, and Orion standing near the center of the shot. That is not a sunset glow. The other view of the green aurora is facing magnetic north. Angle of view, about 150 degrees horizontal, 36 degrees vertical.

Photo details: ISO 800, 8 seconds, f/2.8. Canon 5D.

Tonight, it was absolutely faboulous. A clear sky, a lot of friends, and a lot of northern lights. Details : Canon EOS 30D, 10mm, 6-15 sec., 800 ISO, f3,5

A nice unique auroral display. For much of the display, there was a whitish looking band streaming across the sky from E to W, and I could see a hint of red fringing, and as usual, the camera could "see" it better. It flowed much more like a cloud then typical "rippleing/banding aurora, and off and on odd shaped patches of green would appear. I've never seen a display quite like it before.

Very nice auroras! They came as advertised on Spaceweather. Best display of the year (from this location). The entire northern sky was at times green. Various arcs and waves danced across the sky. Here are a few images. Photo details: Canon Digital Rebel XT, 18-55 lens, RC-5, and tripod. Iso:800, exp: 20-35 sec.
