The aurora pictures were taken on 11/20/2003, at 2003 Chiefland Star Party in Chiefland, Florida (Lat 29.24).
I was fortunate enough to have witnessed the rare aurora event in Florida and was lucky enough to have my camera lense open at the time of the Meteor/Bolide flash (about 5-6 secs.).
The pictures were shoot with a Minolta SRT-101 28mm Lense f 2.8. The funniest thing is, I drove to Chiefland on Saturday 11/15/03, preparing to enjoy a weeklong
star party after unloading all my equipment, I realized that I had left all my cameras at home and Sunday (11/16/03), I had to drive 6.5 hours (380 miles) round trip
back to my home in Titusvile,fl. to get all my cameras.
