The Aurora freaks' page
I convey examples of the infinite variation of the celestial phenomenon Aurora Borealis. On every occation there is many more images that could be disclosed, but the substance of an event is usually boiled down to just a few pictures. All images are exposed with a Minolta SLR-camera, 20 mm/F2,8 or 35 mm/F1,8 or the All Sky Camera. Exposure time and film type vary. If you want to look at the pictures in more detail, just click on the right mousebutton and copy the picture into the image processing programme of your choise. From 2009 I use a Canon DSLR with a 8 mm lens.
