Last night, I put my book down, turned the light off and looked out the window. What usually was a dark sky over Spotted Mt., was lit up. I watched for a while and then it hit me. Northern Lights! I debated very briefly about getting a picture, then grabbed my camera and a small tripod. Laying on my bed I quickly composed the shot and let the shutter go.
While I have seen more bright lights, I'm not complaining. We don't get to see them as much as I would like, and usually when I hear there is a likely display, we have clouds.

I've not yet gotten to see northern lights. I feel cheated :)
Go north!
I enjoyed these photos. I've only seen the northern lights once (and barely,at that) years and years ago.
What an amazing phenomenon! Thanks for sharing them.
Kirk, these are a couple nice photos. I have only seen the northern lights once here in the Mid Ohio Valley. Not normal at all for us. Thanks for the pics

Nellie, Thanks for your comment. I have taken pictures of the northern lights before, but it seems every time I hear we may see them it's cloudy. And usually they appear when I'm least prepared.
Kirk,
