Here's a 15 second exposure of the great auroral display that occurred on 2002/9/7 during the 2002 Black Forest Star Party.  I used a Pentax K1000 SLR camera, a Pentax 50mm lens, and Kodak 400 Gold Max film for the shot.  The Black Forest Star Party is held at Cherry Springs State Park in Potter County, Pennsylvania.
