[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I have not uploaded this image before because I was always concerned about the distortion of the semi-fish eye attachment used here. I've dug this out as a winter treat though and to let you know that witnessing the lights is something I remember vividly to this day. Later that night, I stood in awe at the show.

The lights you see are from the nearest town, which is several miles away. The light was faint, but shows up better on the film. I was exposing from 30 seconds to a few minutes on cheap slide film. If I were to return to do this again, I'd still use slide film, but I'd go with a saturated Kodak or Fuji film next time. Even so, it was these grainy pictures that rekindled my interest in photography.
