Northern Lights?

Last night I was told the Northern Lights would be visible

from 11PM-2AM.

I was all over it.

Mr. and I searched for a good tri-pod place on the beach.

These shots used a 30-second shutter speed.

I was so excited.

Then Mr. rained on my parade.

"It's lightning."

Still a pretty amazing show.

I sat there for about 30 minutes,

looking North,

watching it all.

I could never capture the best parts.

Then the clouds rolled in,

but it didn't rain

or cool off.
