I took four rolls of film of this show.
All my photos flopped. I should have shot between 15-20 seconds for
each photo, but did much less. Time to learn and better gauge the
brightness of each display.
This photo is taken looking west - at the hydrogen arc. These scene - as the one below - is very similar to the display on August 2, 2002. You can see a meteor streak through the sky on the upper right side of the photograph. |

| This photograph is taken looking south-southeast. Mars is pictured in the lower left side of the photograph. This scene is very similar to one in which I received the Astronomy Picture of the day. http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap020805.html |
