We have had some crappy weather lately.
But not tonight!.
The display started at 6PM and I came home after 2PM
And still there was activity outside.

Thank you. Last night was just amazing. For having bad weather for a long time it cleared up. So I was outside from 7PM until 2AM and it was still going!

Great shot! I hope to see one of these displays before I die. Sadly, I missed one a few months ago that made a rare appearance in the New York City area.

Thank you. It's probably easier to travel to see the the aurora than to wait for it in NYC :)

Thank you :) Well you are not alone. Most people that have a camera don't have it setup correctly or no tripod...
What is nice with some of the cameras is the C1-C3 pre-settings that I use a lot.
But mostly I do all manual. If the camera powers off I still have all the settings available.
