[QUOTE="Nikonitus, post: 89910, member: 10962"] True true,, but if you have have seen just how dark it was, you'd understand why I got away with it. All of a sudden, I just realized it was like, oh, I'd say sundown outside and it was just after 10am here. It just got dark. I went outside and things eerily glowed orange/yellow. It was the strangest sight you ever saw. I put the D600 up to the eye and the shutter speed was reading exceptionally low when pointed at anything,, I use Aperture Priority. We're talking 1/20th,, 1/15th when normally it would be in the high hundreds or up to 1/2000th. Looking straight at the event was like looking at an oncoming headlight from a car or bike... I can see why in days gone by, people saw such events as the mark of bad times or evil etc. It was quite abnormal. Mind you there are those who still look upon these events as evil too, that or get on the broomstick and ride around town... I guess that's where the name of "Lunatic" came from... Anyway, it was a great few minutes... [/QUOTE]
