Monday April 24, 2023: Did anyone else see the Northern Lights from right here in Garrett County? From about 11:30pm to about 2:00am, I had my camera and tripod up at the overlook off Route 135. These photos are the product of about an 8-second shutter and an ISO of about 1000. The aurora borealis was definitely there and we began to see the light “spikes” with our naked eye!
