I know it was a few months ago, but I got to experience the Northern Lights in my backyard1<\/a><\/sup>. I\u2019ve had this on my bucket list for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I was streaming one night2<\/a><\/sup>, I saw several social media posts of people right here in Columbus, Ohio posting pictures of the aurora. I got mad FOMO and bailed on my stream and recruited some friends to head up north where there\u2019s less light pollution to see them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I did see them, they were faint to the naked eye. Using just my basic human eyes, it almost looked like light pollution. But when a modern-day camera on a phone or fancy mirrorless camera, and they really did pop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My only regret is that I didn\u2019t bring my intervalometer3<\/a><\/sup> to capture a timelapse. I did manage to make a three frame animation that really captures the movement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t
