	Photographer, Location	Images	Comments
	Jody Majko, Winnipeg, Manitoba Oct. 11	#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7	J. Majko: "You can see how intense the auroras were on the 11th because they were clearly visible even through the light pollution of downtown Winnipeg. I sat outside and watched them for hours."
	Duane Clausen, Menominee , MI, USA Oct. 12	#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, more	D. Clausen: "In two of these images (#4 and #5) the auroras run through the Milky Way. These were strange rogue bands of auroral light that didn't hang near the horizo." Photo details: Kodak Gold 200 , 28mm f1.8, 20-25 sec. exposures
	Chris VenHaus, Eau Claire, WI, USA Oct. 12	#1	Photo details: Camera: Canon A2E, Lens: Canon 35mm f2.0 lens, Film: Fuji Superia.
	Michel Benvenuto, L'Escarene, near Nice, France Oct. 11	#1, #2	M. Benvenuto: "The auroras were faint and diffuse, but after all we are situated at a low latitude in southern France (+43° 50' 07"). The whole display lasted 90 minutes and would come in quick bursts of pinkish - greyish light in Ursa Major." Photo details: 17mm f/3.5 lens, Fuji 800 print film, 10 minute exp.
	Ulrich Rieth, southwestern Germany Oct. 12	#1, #2, more	Photo details: Camera: Canon EOS 50E with a Sigma 28-105mm lens at f/3.8; Film: Fuji Sensia 400ASA color slides Exposure times: 60 to 120 sec.
	Mark Simpson, Calgary, Alberta, Canada Oct. 12	#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, more	M. Simpson: "These auroras weren't the best I've seen, but they had quite a lot of red in them." Photo details: Pentax LX SLR Camera. Film: Fuji Pro NHGII ASA 800. 28mm lens, f2.8 + 1 stop push processed.
	Bernd Pröschold, near Münster, Germany Oct. 12	#1, #2, #3	B. Pröschold: "The center of Münster (250,000 inhabitants) was six km west of my position and the nearest houses only 1.5 km away. So you will notice the struggle between auroras and light pollution on the left side of my pictures. " Photo details: Canon EOS D30 digital camera with a Sigma 20mm lens, 30 seconds exp., lens at 1.8 and 200 ASA
