Re: [APML] New Images - The Aurora Borealis of 9/7/02

Chris,

I just saw your post and went to your site.  Those are beautiful
shots!  I have moved all of my work to Kodak Supra 400 at the moment
so that is what I had in the field for the aurora shots.  I think I
may wish that I had exposed for longer than 30 seconds from what I see
on the raw scans of my Saturday night shots but I will see what
happens in photoshop later.  My early view is that there was a lot
more of the red component on Saturday compared to last Thursday.

Good job,
Bruce
