Two nights ago I went out to photograph aurora and you can see some of the pictures I took in my portfolio

Please send me a comment about what I could have done better.

Great shots. What camera settings/post-processing did you use?

Canon EOS 10D
Shutter speed: 30sec at F4.5

Post-processing was done by "auto contrast" with PhotoShop

Amazing! having never really seen them live, do they move quickly, or are they somewhat stationary like clouds?

All of you just have to visit Iceland next winter. I think the time between november and until february is the best time to see it.

Aurora moves very quickly and can be gone in a second. Like when I was out shooting this I went out around 11 pm and waited for 1 hour (just shooting the moon and some things like that) but when I was driving back home then suddenly the sky went green. I stoped the car got out and started shooting. It was realy frezzing outside but that was ok because I had this beautiful aurora abowe me. These photos just showes a little part of what was happening.
The where playing abowe me for I think 10 to 15 minutes and then they where gone.
