If you've been watching social media during this past weekend you've seen a lot of photos of an epic northern lights display.

Here in Wyoming one photographer managed to stay up late and watch from one of Wyoming's most famous vantage points.

Old Faithful.

Stella Cole of Dubois, Wyoming captured these unique photos and posted them on her Facebook page as well as Wyoming Through The Lens.

This meant waiting long enough for the geyser to erupt with the stars and northern lights in the background.

These are truly once-in-a-generation photos.

I'm not aware of anyone who has captured both the Northern Lights and Old Faithful at the same time.

The opportunity to catch something this spectacular, at this intensity of aurora activity, will not happen again for a long time.

When it does happen again let's hope that someone like Stella is around to capture it.

Also on the Wyoming Through The Lens page, you can see Devil's Tower with the aura behind it.

The photo above shows Old Faithful steaming with a spectacular display over it.

Thank you for allowing us to share these photos, Stella Cole of Dubois, Wyoming.

As wonderful as these pictures are I bet that it's nothing compared to what you saw in person.

I'll include the cover photo one more time so you can see all of it.
