tiabunna's photos with the keyword: Aurora australis

It's very unusual to see an aurora where I live, in fact I've never before seen an aurora from the Australian mainland . Three things are needed: a clear sky, a dark night without light pollution or a full moon, and strong activity from the sun. Last night it all came together. Not only was the red upper light visible but the lower green also began to appear on the horizon. Two images, the first with my standard 50mm lens (PiP), then I realised I needed to go wider and pulled out the 14mm Samyang. One to view large on black.
