Aurora…

[craig61a]

It was little washed out, but I managed to get a few good snaps.

 

[BrightDarkEyes]

Wow, that’s completely amazing. I have rarely seen the aurora boreal is and never when it was that strong.

 

[craig61a]

It walked right over me…

 

[warren]

Good on you!

 

[BrightDarkEyes]

Wow! I feel so lucky. I just spent about an hour outside watching this, too. A friend told my partner it was over their place about an hour south of us. I wonder if it was here all night. I took a pipe out with some Autumn Evening to watch the lights.

This evening should also be possible.

When I lived in Minnesota this was a fairly common, and beautiful, sight.

Recieved this from a member of our Radio club. Not so strong here in Germany. Will check tonight myself.

True, but they normally don’t have the intensity and colors as this event produced.

I was sleeping.
Tonight, I'll be more prepared.

I heard on television that they could be seen from some points in Spain. What I find worrying is the sneeze that the sun spit out. I have never had the opportunity to contemplate such a spectacle. The closest thing was once seeing a brass spittoon flying over my head, on my angry grandfather's farm.

Those were just some glorious views you got. Damn shame I missed it.

The real question is did anyone get superpowers from it?

Fabulous shots!

We have been seeing it here in WNY.
My wife has pictures but they are not as good as the ones posted here.

 

[Streeper541]

We had some heavy cloud cover in NE Ohio, but I managed to get few good shots. It was beautiful.



Taken from my house, 30 miles SW of Cleveland.


Taken by a friend downtown on the lakefront.

Fabulous shots!

Thanks Craig. Your pictures look amazing. I have spent several evening chasing high aurora alert warnings only to be disappointed. This event was amazing. There were other people out and about at midnight although I found a very peaceful spot only 5 mins walk from my front door. Most people from my town were heading to a prominent lookout spot. There would have been dozens of people and car headlights spoiling it. I was jelous recently as I viewed the solar eclipse that crossed North America from a distance. Although I am unlikely to experience a total solar eclipse in my lifetime, this felt like an excellent substitute.
