Aurora Boralis with Coronae converging directly overhead

Aurora Boralis with Coronae converging directly overhead

A once in 20 year apparition of the Sun at maximum as coronal mass ejections hit the Earth's atmosphere.

I have observed Aurora Borealis several times over the years, but my experience this evening is an absolute standout! We were treated to an aurora vortex doing a magical dance directly above us, with brilliant red, pink and magenta colours - something I've never seen in aurora before. I was so happy that I brought my fish eye lens, since this display covered the whole sky. We were in a dark urban setting fringing on rural here on Southern Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.
