Great stuff. The last pic is really cool. What is that light? Someone walking with a flashlight? Exposure time? Looks like it's close to a minute or something?

Thanks :) Yep it was a 60" exposure with the camera sitting on a convenient rock. I walked across with an LED headlight, shone it inside the tent for a couple of seconds and then used it to backlight the door alcove. I was pretty bored :wink:

Nice shots Nick, the last one works well, always fun to experiment like that! Is that a slight green aurora top middle maybe??? I know they had forecast possible aurora activity a few days ago!

I'd like to claim it was, but I fear it's probably just lens flare... I didn't see any aurora activity :(
