The later it got, the colder it got. But somehow no one minded.
The mood had shifted from “is anything really going to happen?” to “what’s going to happen next?”
ISO sensitivity bumped down from 4000 to 2500.

Do the colours look this bright and colourful to the naked eye?

What an experience. The green flash is very nice, but this overwhelming green glow is remarkable even at second hand.

I like that you had to bump the ISO down! 🙂 The grandeur is there, again, without the overdone-ness of so many Northern lights images. Such a strange green glow. (I saw them from a plane, very late at night flying across the country, maybe somewhere over Montana. Shimmering curtains. The plane was silent – everyone was asleep. It was good.)

I can only imagine how wonderful it was. In upcoming shots, you’ll see that the ISO is turned way down. With a Kp index of only 3.3, it was light enough to read for someone with reasonably decent vision. A Kp index above 7, I understand, is actually too bright to effectively photograph. Someone said that at Kp 9 you bring your sunglasses.
