2013.10.02

A rather small aurora, but any aurora visible from this latitude is a good aurora. I am sure I miss several of these minor auroras but I have also put in effort to see others that never form due to the direction of the Planetary Field.

I had recently purchased a number of flashlights and affixed various color filters to them so I could experiment with coloring foreground subjects with colors. The 4 different filters were red, blue, yellow and magenta, you can compare these images with each other.
