- Aurora Borealis, Kennebunk, Maine, nature, northern lights, Sony a5100 with E 10-18 f4 zoom

We will take a break from our coverage of Yellowstone to bring you last night’s Aurora Borealis from the beach here in Kennebunk, Maine. I missed the 7PM maximum by two hours, but when photos began to appear in my wife’s Facebook feed around 9, we went down to beach to see what we could see. The moon was up by then and offering some competition but still, a long exposure captured an impressive green curtain with fading red above. Sony a5100 with the E 10-18 f4 zoom at 15mm equivalent. Superior Auto with Low Light scene mode for an exposure of 2.5 seconds at ISO 3200. Processing and noise reduction in Photomator.
