As I work my way through my skipped over photos from last year, I am multitasking that like I do most things. I am editing chronologically as seen from the recent Joshua Tree and Yosemite Photos, but I am also editing from back in October as I am working on a Timelapse from Minnesota of the Northern Lights. I am burning the candle from both ends it seems. 
I was really fortunate to have been in Minnesota to capture the fall colors in the Upper Midwest. So when the sun went crazy for a 3 day period, I was able to capture the Northern Lights in several places with multiple cameras. As I am finishing the Timelapse, I am working up some single images that I can place on my CaptureTheWildLight website for purchase as well. I decided to start using my video's on my YouTube channel as a way to sell more prints, or at least try.
It's really late in the Milky Way season by the time October rolls around. But the good news is it's still decently bright, especially if one changes from the normal SouthEast composition for it, to the NorthWest. So I am really liking that later in the night, the Milky Way moved it's way into the composition as well.
Nikon D850
Sigma 14mm f1.8
ISO1600
20 sec shutter
f/1.8
For those wondering, my exposure settings were just slightly faster then I would normally use for my Milky Way images. Strong Northern Lights can be super bright in the sky, so I didn't want to blow them out as the timelapse rolled.
All comments are welcome,
Jim
PS. The Timelapse will be up tonight or tomorrow
