Details:
Got some more pictures to share because I took so many. The wide-angle feature of the GoPro shows how huge they are. It was a dream come true to finally see them and nice not have to travel way north, but I drove to a super low light pollution area of Dateland, AZ and could totally see them with the naked eye and they looked red. The greens looked pale and whitish to my eyes. I was surprised to be able to hear them.
I used a GoPro to get some super wide-angle shots, but it was a little grainy though.
Settings:
GoPro Hero 5 Black
ISO = 800 MIN + 800 MAX (don't use a low MIN# or you'll and up with it automatically choosing an ISO of ~325 and your images will be too dim)
Camera Mode = Night Photo (f/2.5)
Color = Native
Format = RAW (this gives you more data and files to edit in Adobe Lightroom)
Exposure times: I tested 15-30 sec. exposures.
Used a tripod with voice commands to avoid camera shake.
