Aurora Borealis
My first aurora photo of the summer/fall 2019 season. This became one of the most brilliant displays I've seen in quite a while!
Northern lights over trees - Fairbanks, Alaska
After a bright show, the lights were diffuse for a few minutes. This band started forming in the north but dissipated quickly.
This band appeared to the north briefly. The purple rays (from high altitude nitrogen) were only slightly visible to the eye.
Band Disappears
Right before a stronger arc appeared to the south.
Strengthening
One of the auroral bands began to strengthen again.
Fairbanks, Alaska
Bright Arc
A very bright arc appeared to the south
As the band became brighter the crimson started to show on the lower part.
The band brightened and started showing some structure as the lower crimson edge really started to shine bright.
