It's been annoying listening to podcasters that often question media and reality make assertions that the aurora photos were fakes. Gell-Man Amnesia now makes me question them more.
While the phenomenon itself may not be completely natural (HAARP?) the manner in which it was captured is not mysterious to this photographer who has taken many a long exposure and particularly with astrophotography.
Longer exposures = more saturated colors and tones than seen by the naked eye.
