Description
Sometimes you need a little patience and sometimes you need a little luck. It has been almost two years since I have personally seen a good northern light show in our area (yes, I missed one or two). Things looked promising for August 6, although the big show wasn't predicted until the next night or two. Still, I set up the camera and watched the skies. At midnight there was a faint glow and I got a few nice milky way with aurora shots. I thought that would be it and so I went back to bed. A little over an hour later I awoke to a glow over the sky- could it be? YES! Upon stepping outside, I was stunned to see light pillars extending waaay up into the sky, but moving across the horizon rather quickly. I literally ran to my shooting spot and re-set up as fast as I could. I arrived just in time to fire off a few quick shots. As you can see, I was handsomely rewarded for my efforts. Then that was it...no more show and no more aurora was to be seen in the ensuing days. Lady luck had indeed smiled once again.
