This was the first wave coming in Friday night at around 11:20pm, not as much colour as the second wave but still pretty damn spectacular ;)

Revisited an old photo for some finer editing, this is McDougal United Church that burned down, it was a cool little place to take pictures.

Went out for northern lights but it was pretty much a bust, though I guess you can see a faint green cloud in the background.. Lady Aurora gave us lem
