Northern Lights - Aurora Borealis - a photo on Flickriver

            In Edmonton, facing East, taken out of my 2nd floor window in September, 1987.  The Northern Lights were so bright I could see them from inside my apartment with the kitchen lights turned on.  I opened the window, pushed out the screen and cranked off three consecutive shots while the aurora rose up, twisting and dancing like a snake out of a basket.  This is the third of three frames.   Made to order, Jupiter was also rising in the top right corner of the frame.  ASA 100, 20 second exposure, using a Canon A-1 & 50mm FD lens.
