no aurora spotted

Stu sent an email to me and Bill.
Skies cleared around 3:20.  I shot constellations for 30 mins or so.  [Temperature] -15 with a fairly steady breeze, tired, underdressed – it was frickin cold.
No aurora.  I have some shots that are OK for pres’ns BUT my focus was not right on!  Silly.  I could have used the lights of Port Perry to autofocus, then set to manual – or, hmmm something about a Y mask...

Anyway, got home at 5.

Learning lesson.
Brave man.
