This picture was taken in Emporium Pennsylvania from a lookout over our small town. The weather was not cooperating and it was extremely cloudy last night. But I wanted to try. There was a small break in the clouds after midnight and this was the best I could get. As far as I can tell, this is the Aurora, but I could be wrong. I’m new to photographing night photography. I’ve mastered day photography and needed a change.

Nikon D700 with Nikon 18-55mm lens mounted on a tripod.. 20sec exposure, f.5/6, ISO 2000

Just some minor editing. Adjusted the exposure to tone down the brightness from the long exposure and lights in the town.
