Re: [APML] 17 and 18 september aurora

Dom, amazing shots! I think your idea of going to 20 seconds or even 15 
on 800 film at f2.8 is the right exposure anyway and you get the 
additional structure to boot!

I'm frustrated as I was sure there was a strong aurora and I was out 
scanning the northern horizon but saw nothing so gave it up (Wed night) 
and then last night of course there was this small matter of a hurricane 
trying to show Ontario it some punch left in it. Sigh.
