That's roughly what I took mine with as well. However, seeing some other people's pictures I think that somewhat higher ISO and shorter exposure might have been good since the moving Norther Lights can blur in the 30 sec exposure. Mine below, hope you don't mind...

I love the Samyang 14mm for this kind of shot, and this shot is the kind of shot i want to aspire to be good enough to take.
Superb i may even set as my wallpaper for a few days

For next occasion I would suggest to stop down to f/4 and double exposure time (or ISO if possible).

Thank you all for your comments!
I agree that even longer exposure time would be intresting. Hopefully this phenomenon happens again within 5 years!
Raffwal nice one!
