About this image

There was a fair bit of cloud slowly clearing from the south when I got an amber aurora alert. Best conditions were between 2200 and 2300 UT. It was quite active in regards to light pulsation and gentle 'flaming' when observed on the camera screen. Some live video has been uploaded to youtube. The link will be added as a comment.
