More Aurora Borealis action last night. An active solar storm brought the Aurora very far south between Helena and Great Falls. Kp-5.33, Proton Density-5, IMF-6, Solar Wind-600. This far south your naked eye does not pick up the color like a camera sensor does. You will see the glow and the streaks and curtains but not the color. 4/15/2015. Someday I'd love to see this in AK or in the far north.

mtcham, your aurora shots are outstanding!
And Lonnie, ditto on your eclipse composite -- fantastic work.
It figures that all year I waited for aurora in NZ but got skunked by weather almost every time; and then the evening that I leave, they get three consecutive nights (and running) of fantastic aurora displays.
At least I got to shoot the Chicago skyline. Experimented with doing a stitched panorama for a cityscape. 11-shot panorama, each one at 200mm:

Thanks Fuzz! Great job on the Pano. Too bad you missed them at home. I'm trying to figure out if I really got lucky or if these are present more often and I just haven't been tuned in.
Supermodel-google aurora borealis, there is a ton of good reading on them.
Been out the last 3 nights and am a bit sleep deprived so this may be the last one..... unless that kp# hits 6 or 7.

Lonnie, yours shows as protected by owner.
Went to San Francisco for a few days to visit friends and managed to get to Marin Headlands for sunset -- what great views!

Few from Key West last week. The sun sets over a island this time of year so its harder to get good snaps.
The Key West Butterfly and Nature Conservatory.
People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.

OH, MY GAWD! ―John Hillerman Big Billie Eilish fan.
But that's a quibble to what PG posted (at first, anyway, I haven't read his latest book) ―jono
we are not arguing about ski boots or fashionable clothing or spageheti O's which mean nothing in the grand scheme ― XXX-er
