A night to remember

How it delicately started at 7.32pm to how it, or more accurately I, ended at silly o'clock in full "look at me" mode. It went on longer but I'd reached my limit.
In a bit of a whim I'd decided it might be a good idea to have an f2 lens so ordered one on Wednesday, fully expecting waiting several days for it to arrive. 22 hours later, here it was and a few hours after that, the Aurora came to visit. Tiny little thing has already earned its keep.
After May's glorious display, I'd learnt how to do time lapse and actually remembered during the display. Image 3, showing the corona, is a still from one of the videos the clever camera creates with the time lapse images.

Super shots of the Aurora! We got to see them at our latitude ( Pittsburgh Pennsylvania ) as well but not nearly as spectacular as what you saw.

Beautiful shots - fav! I wasn't out too long, and headed indoors not long after 10:30 - showing my age.

@fishers I stayed out until about 1am, almost falling over with cold and exhaustion. Worth every shivery second! Glad you saw it.

@pej76 thanks. I hadn’t expected to see it again after the incredible May display so was delighted last week, twice in 5 months! Wonderful.
