Description

I took this picture of the Aurora Borealis in November of 2003 using Fuji 800 speed film and a Canon 50mm lens opened up to 1.4. It was about 11 pm. This exposure was about 30 seconds. The picture was not taken in Alaska, but in southern Missouri. This is what it looked like looking north.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
