Protect Me

elaterite, 7 days ago to random

Since it will be well over a week before the replacement axle for my car arrives, I decided I should get my converted 1976 KZ400 running again. Very long story. In the mid-2000s I ran it with Pb acid batteries. Then I put NiCd batteries on it but never finished that traction pack change over. Then I got Li batteries, did a lot of work on it but stopped with only the low voltage wiring to complete. So, after literally decades, time to get the old bike running again since my car is in limp mode.

Nice to be among all the other stars at night 😘

(Fom the night between Saturday & Sunday).

A landscape over the forest at night where the tree line is seen as a black silhouette. Even though it is just after midnight the lowest part of the sky is very bright. Above the trees a really pale green bow of aurora borealis is visible and above that some pale lilac pilars of aurora can be seen. The pale colours of the aurora is because of the somewhat bright light from the sun is seen even though it is in the middle of the night. The sky is filled with stars above the forest.
A landscape at night with a starry sky. The forest below is only seen as a black silhouette with some higher pine trees in the low centre. There is a gap between those trees where you can see the light from the cresent moon. To the low right side a very pale green and above that a bit red tone is visible.

The Elfs are dancing by the brook, calling for Näcken.

*Näcken, a creature in scandinavian folklore, that is a naked man/creature sitting by a stream or a brook, playing a violin trying to lure young girls in the water to drown. (short version).

Näck = Naked in Swedish.

I decided to roll the dice, that my CV joint on my car wouldn't blowup, for a run up north out of city lights to see the aurora--& I'm so glad I did! Two shots from northern California: First is from Doyle & the second is from Frenchman Lake. What an amazing display! For a time the aurora covered a 180 degrees from east to west & was overhead & could be seen in the south! I shot these photos with a 15mm f/2.0 30sec ISO400.

Color photo of an aurora. The landscape is forested mountains with a tongue of a lake going from the lower left to lower central frame. A distant body of water can be seen past the tongue. In the sky there are stars. On the horizon, just above the low mountain ridge line, is a band of yellow-green. Blue is above that. Then red. Then purple. There are numerous vertical streaks as well.

For everyone interested, for now it looks like there is a hugh chance for auroras again tonight, perhaps almost as strong as yesterday.

Let's keep all fingers crossed!!

@ambivalena do you think that the solar storm will continue tonight? Or was yesterday the peak? (I think you have some app or so where you check this stuff,…?)

Dispite all the clouds it was still possible to catch some of that northern light (aurora borealis) tonight.

Not as breathtaking as many of the photos from around Europe that had a clear sky of course.

The rare thing about the first image is that it´s photoraphed towards south east which I have never experienced before.
Usualy that is not possible where I live.

And congratulations to all of you who hade the great fortune to see it for the first time and with a clear sky!

A seascape at night in black and white. A tree line of forest at the horizon with some lights from houses along the coast. To the right a headland with rocks and pine trees and aspens that has not gain any leaves yeat. Over the sea a very cloudy sky with some light pollution that is reflected on the surface of the sea. In the midle of the image a woman is standing with the back against the camera, looking out over the sea. She is leanig on a couple of handles of a ladder that is used to climb down into the water from a jetty. You an see the person from the head and down to the beginning of the legs. She has long and a bit curly hair down to her waist. It is a selfportrait.

Oh my, how I love to see these numbers of the aurora borealis forecast. I really really hope it will happen, even though the nights are too bright now the high nummer on saturday might be visible if it gets that strong. And a big chance it could be seen as far south as half Eurorope where it is dark enough if it happens late enough in the evening.
