Description

More aurora!

I continue to sort through my stack of raw images taken on the event of the Solar storm that occurred on May 10/24.     

The aurora were so bright that they enveloped the entire sky (north to south and east to west)... so rather than trying to do normal deep space astro we did some visual work with a friend's home built dobsonian scope and also brought out the DSLRs for wide angle imaging of the aurora themselves. 

I selected this image out of a large number because it showed good contrast at the highest altitudes, and featured some green pickets at low altitude. 

Thanks for looking!
