Auroral Arc Panorama (Oct 11, 2021).jpg
A 120° panorama of the initial arc of Northern Lights at the start of an evening of aurora during a G2 storm on October 11/12, 2021, Thanksgiving Day in Canada. This was from home in southern Alberta, Canada.
Moonlight from the waxing crescent Moon tints the sky. Note the subtle shades of red and variations of green in the arc. The panorama shows off the classic auroral oval centred on the direction of the north magnetic pole, to the northeast of true north at my longitude in western Canada. The Big Dipper is at left and its Pointer stars in the bowl point up to true north (Polaris is off the frame).
This is a panorama of 13 segments at 15° spacings, with the RF 28-70mm lens at 28mm and at f/2 on the Canon R6 at ISO 1600 for 4 seconds each. Stitched with Adobe Camera Raw.
