Details:
After a week of very quiet and dim auroras (or so I am told) our first night back at the Churchill Northern Studies Centre in northern Manitoba brought a fine all-sky display but best at the start of the night about 8 to 9 pm local time. These are two images, one a 360° fish-eye scene, of the display at its best over the boreal forest on the edge of the Arctic tundra on the shore of Hudson Bay. The display then subsided and appeared only as a faint diffuse arc across the sky for most of the rest of the night. We're hoping for more and better shows over the next two weeks of prime aurora viewing from under the oval. The temperature was -25° C.
