[QUOTE="snaphappy, post: 138942, member: 12198"] LOL sorry Whitelight not within my talents :) If you want to see lights you gotta freeze your butt off hehe I'd never seen the lights until we moved up here 3yrs ago Always lived more in southern and coastal Canada so it was pretty great to see even these little green lights. But I have seen a couple of shows one in particular that I would have LOVED to know how to take pictures. Although there is no lens wide enough to take it all in at once the entire sky was dancing and absolutely stunning. Nature is magical Today was exciting to get a parcel! Teacher showed me how amazing bouncing flashes can be so got myself a sb-700 and while I was at it found a used 50mm f1.8D (fabulous condition I think), a tiffen CPOL for my 70-300mm and a 496 ball head for my tripod! The tilt head that came with my tripod is great and I'm keeping it but it just wouldn't tip straight up for sky pics. Tonight it is POURING rain so no trying it out tonight but I had fun taking pics inside with my 50mm and flash. My 5yr old is in huge trouble this week after making very scary choices so I haven't done much camera stuff but today he got volunteered as head shot model as I played with my sb-700. Tomorrow I'll get out manuals and do some learning but tonight I had a great time just playing and seeing what happens. I had ordered a 28mm f2 that I was incredibly excited about someone snatched it up before me probably while I was checking reviews etc too bad [IMG]http://gallery.nikonites.com/gallery/files/1/2/1/9/8/nik_2430.jpg[/IMG] New toys after I unpacked them [/QUOTE]
