What I'm dubbing the "Valentine's Day Storm" - one of the most amazing nights of auroras I've had in my life. When I saw them getting bright, I had to pull over on the side of the road - I ended up staying there the entire night because the auroras never quit!

How do you know an aurora is bright? Look at the ground. If it's green, you're dealing with a particularly intense display.

These photos were taken 30 seconds apart. The aurora is very dynamic and can move quickly. This is why I like timelapse - not only can I recreate the movement of the aurora through videos, but I can select the best times where the aurora manifested interesting shapes.
