Aurora Borealis

On the way home tonight from Bible Study, we saw this beautiful Aurora Borealis.  We stopped along the way and I got some images with my phone which weren't very good, but when we got to the house I grabbed my good camera to make some images.
This is just hand-held, so it isn't as sharp as it could be, but it's beautiful just the same.

Northern Lights

I took this image with my new cell phone.  It was tricky~~it was cold and it was difficult to hold the phone steady until it took the pic.  It automatically went into night mode so it was a couple of seconds before the camera clicked.  

The interesting thing is that to the naked eye the sky just looked dark and there was a slight "cloudy" look to the area where the northern lights are, it didn't look green at all, so until someone told me, I thought it was just a clump of clouds.  The camera picked out the color. 

I only found that out about a week ago.  Who knows how many times I missed the lights, not realizing what that "cloudy" area really was.  I have one more night to see the lights and there's no telling if it will be too cloudy or if there will even be a light show.  It changes second-by-second. 

I'm happy I got the images I did.
