Nope, never seen the Sprites with naked eye. My vidcam is extra red sensitive too which probably made it easier for it to pick up. At the same time I cad a "normal" colour camera running and it didn't pick them up either.

My mother and aunt told me stories of ball lightning when they were kids out near Finch Hatton. They reckon these orange plasma balls would run along the railway lines when they came out of school on stormy afternoons. Apparently it was a common sight for them, but I've never seen anything like that.
