Amazing photos...weather here in western Norway still pretty bad. Was out last night but saw nothing as cloud covered most of sky from 0030. I am very jealous!

What's stopping you ? . A DSLR is a better camera in any situation imaginable! I only got my Canon 450D for 2 months but I'm taking photo's of things where I didn't even buy it for ( such as birds ).

Very nice images everyone. I was stuck in a train near Reading for over an hour and arrived in Bath just after the display was over ... But I saw it from the train window. Really nice display!

I saw some too last night, from the Everett, WA, USA area- 48 deg N lat , 122 deg W long. Saw them from 10:00 to 11:00 pm PDT= 5 to 6:00 UT. Pretty extensive- from NW past N, up to 15 to 20 deg. Some wavy structure. Took pix with my film camera(remember those) with Fuji Velvia 50 film. Hope they come out. Have seen them several times from here.

We saw only a pale NLC in the northern horizon.

Just fantastic I must admit! Dollsworth and scotweather made the best pictures I think.

Yes they are all equally good, but I meant about the effect... well nevermind...

I agree that some photo's are outstanding but each contribution is worth the effort! Unfortunately my settings were wrong and I was unable to capture some detailed shots sharply, also from my location it is nearly impossible to catch the NLC's low on the horizon because of light polution, which in my opinion, are often the nicest.
