Aurora 20240510/11 - How it started

No sooner had dusk turned to something like night than the auroral arc went overhead, brilliant rays of purple, green and blue.

Lovely pink rays of aurora

20240510/11 Aurora: Corona

I usually find this kind of view of the aurora a bit spooky - like staring down the Predator's gaping maw.
So, seeing as last night was the first time I ever saw the corona myself, I had to replicate the effect. :)

20240510/11 Aurora: Cosmic Kiss

Purple and green. Two more views of the corona. Feeling a little fanciful, I think the purple blob looks like a huge pair of lips...

Brash: vibrant blue, purple and green rays near the auroral corona

20240510/11: The Best Aurora

It doesn't always come loud and brash in contrasty green on black. Sometimes it comes quietly, softly, gently.

My two favourite photos from last night's display. Just light and colour and awe and wonder.
