The northern sky over the Hoodoos badlands formations in the Red Deer River valley near Drumheller, Alberta, on a night with some aurora tinting the sky yellow and magenta, with a touch of blue. The foreground is lit partly by a yardlight nearby and car headlights. The Big Dipper is at left; Polaris and the Little Dipper are above centre; the W of Cassiopeia is at upper right.

This is a stack of 4 exposures for the ground to smooth noise, and one exposure from the set for the sky, untracked. All 30 seconds at f/2.8 with the Venus Optics 15mm lens and Canon R6 at ISO 2500. Taken on a very clear night September 16, 2023, on a drive home from the Alberta Star Party.
