Amazing, fantastic, awesome!! I love all photos in the series!
Congratulations!

I've read that tonight it will be possible to see faint aurora in my country but only in northern parts and far away from cities. I wish I could be 300 km (185 miles) to the north now :)

About katy99780
katy99780 I've lived in Alaska since 1969. I really love this wild land. The extremes of the far north shape and affect every living thing. Extremes of weather, elevation, daylight hours, isolation, flora and fauna, nothing in Nature is insignificant.I have a Davis Vantage Pro weather station, uploading to Wunderground, (Turks on the Tundra) the National Weather Service, the Citizen Weather Observation Program and MADIS (Meteorological Assimilation Data Ingest System).
