Magnificent auroras last night in Rochester, NY -by Jim Montanus [View all]

One of my favorite local photographers was tipped off to the possibility of the auroras being visible as far south as our latitude and captured some amazing photographs as a result of his night-owl behavior.

I managed to rise early enough to take a drive in hopes of capturing some images of my own, however the location I chose was overcast and extremely windy.

Meanwhile, a mere 30 miles to the west of where I attempted, Jim managed to captured some crowd-pleasing images of the auroras as visible from Rochester, New York.

Enjoy!
