[QUOTE="snaphappy, post: 300479, member: 12198"] LOL others had photos posted awhile ago that I could not see the spooky faces because I only have Mac computers and images too dark for me too see :) I think my 12-24mm did pretty great because it was pretty dark out there and I did get up to 400 ISO on a few. A neighbour had left a light on so used it to set my focus and then hoped for the best. My trusty 35mm would not have been able to capture so much and even at 12mm I had a hard time choosing the new strongest lights starting up so I could get the best parts into the photos :) I tried some light painting but my horses mucked them all up photo bombing me but I gave it a try and will try it again. I was going to try out "P" and see if camera captured it better than me but just could not give up control LOL I think I have done what I most wanted when choosing to get my first DSLR which is to capture the Aurora and next I need some better foreground unfortunately the Aurora doesn't tell me when it'll show up sigh [/QUOTE]
