[Image description: the Aurora borealis painted the night sky with streaks of red, purple, and green all the way down to the 43rd parallel this evening]
This was really cool. I’ve waited 40 years to see this, even went on vacation to Norway once hoping to see them and it never worked out until now.
I’m so glad you got to catch it this time!

From my wife’s coworker who lives nearby:
Amazing pictures from everyone, where I am in Northeastern Ontario, Canada it’s much less pronounced and barely visible unassisted, but Night Sight took a nice picture
We got some good reds and greens tonight in Wisconsin!This is the best I got tonight. Right after this, they kinda dissolved into the sky which was pretty neat
From northern Ohio this evening
Oh dang, you had a beautiful view! I saw them tonight as well, but they were just faint glowstick green. A few days ago, my sister saw some awesome purples, but again, nothing like this! Awesome photos, thanks for sharing!
Wow, incredible! I’m excited to see what I can see when it gets full dark!
edit: couldn’t see anything in western Washington, and it wasn’t even cloudy! :(
My first time seeing them, it’s usually -20°F when they are here. I had no idea they changed so quickly! This made my entire life and I can die without regret now lol
I got the biggest alert I have ever seen in the Aurora Pro app yesterday, and it was cloudy…
Nice photo!
I’m below 41*N and we had them here for about 20-30 min
I’m in Colorado at 40°. We couldn’t see it with the naked eye, but you could sure see the colors with night mode on your cell phone. It lasted around 45 minutes here and by the time I went to grab my real camera it was already over. At least I know now that my phone can ‘see’ them even when I can’t.
