Description

On Sept 5 2019 the Aurora blazed over Alberta and shut down our star-party imaging session.

We were fortunate, however, to have a visit by STEVE - Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement. In a frantically brief 10 minute session I was able to pull my camera off my telescope and capture STEVE glowing over my friend's astronomy tent in the next campsite.

Image is a composite of one 4 second shot for the sky/steve, and 40 x 3 second shots for the ground. I used the 40 second shots for a GIF
