Auroral Coronal Outburst over 70 Mile Butte (Aug 11, 2024).jpg
The Northern Lights in a superb display on August 11-12, 2024, here over 70 Mile Butte in Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan, near Val Marie.
The aurora was bright enough during this substorm outburst at 12:15 a.m. that the red and green colours could be seen with the eye, though they were subtle. The camera always records the colours with more intensity. The vertical image sweeps up to the swirling corona at the zenith.
This is a single 2-second exposure with the Venus Optics 15mm lens at f/2 on the Canon R5 at ISO 3200.
