Crazy geomagnetic storm in northern Canada right now too

Translation: The north of Sweden has cheap electricity due to the availability of local hydro power.

Bro, this is Wakanda.

💋👌

soooo should we be worried?

Wow. Speechless!

It’s quite gorgeous, you are very talented!

New desktop, nice

The pink means that the sun tried to kill you extra hard, but good ole earth saved you again!

Jump on Facebook and look for a NZ aurora group. You will find alerts and tips on seeing it.

Almost all the pics you see are nothing like what you can see with the naked eye. Need a long exposure to bring out any colour at all most of the time.

Not that I care but go with aurora and you have both covered

Pretty common across the southern side of Australia.

We get darker skies which helps.

They were referencing a Simpsons quote.

I already said that last bit of my comment... Anyway, never understood the need to differentiate between the two. They are both Aurora Polaris and look the same.

Edit: here is a picture someone in DK took yesterday. This is how it normally looks in Denmark. Not only the green color you typically see when you are directly underneath it. https://www.reddit.com/r/Denmark/comments/11e2src/jeg_ville_ogs%C3%A5_v%C3%A6re_med_p%C3%A5_nordlys_b%C3%B8lgen_s%C3%A5_var/

Apparently it was. I know the Victorians were in fits because inland NSW could see it and they had nothing but clouds.

Absolute impeccable beauty!

There's a Denmark in southern Western Australia. Beautiful part of the world.

Must have been quite strong solar activity, also the Borealis was seen far south yesterday. The australis much be much rarer to get a glimpse of as the optimal area is probably at 70° south.

I'm currently visiting Queenstown, NZ and wasn't able to see it last night. It was cloudy, but maybe there was some other reason we couldn't see it (astronomy isn't my strong suit). Definitely disappointed.

I haven't updated my desktop background since 2019, so thank you!

Parks officials have closed the road into the lake. Used to be just closed in the winter but looks like the only access is by bus. Amazing hikes in the fall to see tamarack turn gold

Nice.

Yep, that's the spot. Stopped there many times myself.

Well VLWphotography, you're a strange fellow, but you take a good photo.
