St. Patrick's Day-What'sUP March 17 - 06:26 pm

By Mary Drew at Pasty Central (Mdrew) on Thursday, March 17, 2011 - 07:54 am:

The Northern Lights were shining brightly one night last week and Shawn Malone grabbed her equipment to get some fantastic photographs of the occurrence, along the lakeshore in Marquette. She says that the brightest portion of the phenomenon had already passed, by the time her husband, Brian, woke her up to capture them. These shots of hers seem plenty bright and show the different forms these lights take while dancing through the night sky. If you've ever seen them flashing and changing in person, you know how mystical and magical they seem.

With today being the "wearin' o' the green" day and the talk of magic and mystery, it seems appropriate to say that perhaps these green lights in the sky were painted by leprechauns in celebration of today...Happy St. Patrick's Day!

WOW...FANTASTIC pictures....lucky to see them! I live in Baraga. The lights at the prison and at the cas-ino, basically eliminate any chance of seeing these...

BEAUTIFUL PICTURES!!!!

Great pics! Thanks for sharing, Shawn

Happy St. Patricks Day to all and as an old Irish blessing goes, "God bless all here".

By James Alain (Charlevoix) on Thursday, March 17, 2011 - 10:55 am:

You did well! It's HARD to capture the Northern Lights on film, and your shots turned out exceptionally well.

By Shirley Waggoner (Shirlohio) on Thursday, March 17, 2011 - 10:58 am:

Beautiful photos of some of God's wonderful creations....and my favorite color! I guess it's 'cause my ancestry is Irish! Happy St. Pat's Day, everyone!

What's that Irish blessing? "May you be in heaven a half hour before the devil knows you're dead."
