#1, #2, #3, #4, | This is solar minimum? Try telling that to the auroras that floated over the horizon here in West Central Wisconsin last night. Shot these using my Canon Rebel EOS XT on Bogen tripod at approx 8 secs. F1.8 ISO 400 noise reduction on. |

These auroras lasted only a few minutes but produced intense and vivid colours combined with rapid movements. |

The wind was blowing a gale as evidenced by the moving trees in one image, but managed a couple clear shots of some nice auroral activity- first I've seen them in over a year! |

We saw a nice subtle show this evening. It started with a bow about 04:30 UTC. It broke up briefly, went back to a bow, and then broke up again into discrete rays, lasting 45 minutes. Not a lot of activity, but it was FUN to see lights again. Photo Details: Canon Rebel XT Sigma 20mm f1.8 20 sec 800 asa |

My friend and I went out to a beach to try our luck on seeing the aurora, which was proven to be a right decision. The aurora was not very strong, but its profile was clearly seen. It lasted for several hours which made both us and our cameras happy. The pictures were captured by using a Canon 300D, 24-70mm lens, f2.8, ISO 400, 24-92 sec. |

From nowhere the sky started to get green and a rather nice Aurora Borealis display lasted for a few hours. I photograhed using a Canon 350D @ 28mm f/5.6 and 20s iso 800. |
