Aurora account
Modest Solar Wind for Auroras
A coronal mass ejection (CME) was forecast to impact Earth this evening, but the CME was late, and the forecast was updated to reflect a later impact, sometime later during the day. Nonetheless, several hours of modest negative Bz got the northern horizon to light up a bit, and the moon was nearly in a new phase, allowing the skies to remain dark most of the night. The conditions were sufficient in the evening, so I was able to go out and be back before midnight.
My goal was to keep things simple, and since the aurora was just a northern horizon glow for the most part, I only took three pictures. I took one with my 14mm f1.4 lens and two more with the 24mm f1.4 lens. Both are shown below
