So far they only go back to 2006, not sure where the 2007 section is. I think this is just an archive. If you have any old photographs, I'm sure they'll still take submissions. :) Really nice photos in there.

I found April 2007's auroras, I must be clicking the wrong link somewhere:

Back in 1976 in Holly, MN (20 Miles E of Fargo ND), I stood under the same lights this guy is (http://www.spaceweather.com/aurora/images2005/15may05c/Hollingshead1.jpg). Wow, what an awesome experience that was. The wife and I had just got home (mobile home that is) from a movie in Fargo and the lights just kept getting brighter and brighter the closer home we came. When I got out of the car I'd swear they were touching me on the head, they were that close. Still vivid in my minds eye.
