Here's that aurora from last night, several hours in duration in the N to NW sky and most active in Auriga and Perseus. The sky had a large enhancement which was the aurora, then a green band formed below this and vertical beams/rays could be seen dancing across the sky to the N with purple colours. It was a faint display but still very nice. Lost sight of it when the Moon rose. Will be trying again tonight but clouds are forecast. 18mm, ISO1600, exposure 56 sec's
