Re: [APML] Aurora!!
Jim and all Astro-photoers
I find it interesting how far south some of the people saw the Aurora.South
Carolina!!!Even
Jim be sure to let us see the photos!!! How great!! Looking forward to
seeing them.
If you do not have a place to show them you could go someplace like this
http://www.pbase.com/rodo and we do not have to download them if we only
want to view. You can look here to see my Aurora last year and compare yours
to mine since from your letter it sounds like you saw some of the same types
of Aurora that I witnessed last year.
Impatiently waiting for your photos Hope they turn out great
