Re: [APML] Two new images from mid May

First,

Thanks for all of the wonderful compliments from everyone.

You are correct, this was a single exposure.  As for the skies, you can borrow
them this weekend.  Oh wait, sorry, there's a full moon :)  I guess I'll trade
if you promise to send me a nice aurora on a dark clear night!

I was quite depressed when I saw the weather on the first day of my trip, but
it is my understanding that some of the best skies come right after a front has
passed through the area.  Perhaps I should have been thankful for the rain on
the first day...
