About this image

Aurora photos from November 3rd, how often do we get clear skies...maybe 40 nights per year, how often do we get clear skies and an Aurora, almost never!... A very red auroral display that was actually short lived, It looked like it was about to explode as the bz was minus eleven and I expected a variety of rays but never happened and going by data/graphs alone with a bz of plus six.. it was definitely over within an hour or so. Canon 6D, ISO 2000, 25 seconds, Samyang 14mm
