  2. Fantastic photos! You all have done an outstanding job! I especially like the Northern Lights! We had gone outside and did not see them. It must have been the wrong time. I’m glad you caught them on your camera! Nice job!

  5. WOW WHAT AMAZING SHOTS!!! VERY STUNNING. WISH WE COULD SEE THE AURORA BOREALIS HERE IN FARMINGHTON.

  8. The pictures are awesome and I love them all. Thanks to all who submitted them. Wish I could put all the pictures together in a book to save but not possible.

  9. Outstanding photos this week and every week – first class photos from some wonderful photographers.
