Northern Lights

[Chilli Pepper]

Hi again! I went to Tromso and took some shots of the northern lights last November and hope this November to see/photograph them in Luosto, Finland. Below are my attempts at photographing them last year. Can anyone please give me any advice on how I can improve on them at all, in all fairness know they are pretty poor in comparison to many but any advice will be greatfully received! ....

You might be better posting in the Astro & Night Photography section of the Landscapes threads and asking for advice there. You can't move this thread, so just put in a link to it and say you've posted the photos in General. I've never tried it, so afraid I can't help.
