This week southern Wisconsin was treated to two nights of aurora borealis. I missed Monday night’s show, so I was determined to get out there last night during the predicted solar storm.
I was grateful to have my camera along — it picks up so much more color than the human eye is able to, which was especially true of last night’s display.
The last image below, is a better representation of what I actually saw at at Token Creek County Park last night. Mostly instances of muted green aurora visible. Once in a while I could see some faded glimpses of red.
Great photos! we were actually able to see it here too in Indiana.
It was certainly amazing.
Thanks Chris! That’s awesome you two were able to see them! From what I’ve heard it peaked around here between 9-9:30pm, and was much more visible then. I ended up heading out just after that (since it’s usually the strongest around midnight), which is why I was so glad to have my camera with me.
