Perseid Meteor in Red Aurora (2024).jpg
The Northern Lights in a superb all-sky Kp6 to 7 display on August 11-12, 2024, here over 70 Mile Butte in Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan, near Val Marie. This was from the middle of a bright sub-storm outburst with the deep red color visible even to the eye.
This was also a peak night for the 2024 Perseid meteor shower, and one bright Perseid meteor shoots away from the radiant point in Perseus, and to the south of the W of Cassiopeia, amid the deep red aurora and converging rays at the magnetic zenith at top.
This was one frame from a 280-frame rapid-cadence time-lapse, set for the aurora and its fast pulsating motion. Each exposure was only 2 seconds with a 1-second interval, so I was lucky to catch the meteor in its entirety on this frame.
This is a single exposure with the Venus Optics/Laowa 10mm Z lens wide open at f/2.8 on the Nikon Z6III at ISO 6400. Adobe DeNoise AI applied.
