Details:
A rather unexpected auroral storm occurred while I was shooting C/2022 E3 (ZTF). As I was focused on setting up my gear to image the comet, the aurora had come out behind me. When I realized what was going on behind me I took my gear down and started imaging the aurora. What an incredible show, for the rather low solar wind speed (350km/s). The colours were outstanding ranging from intense green to red and pink pillars. The big bonus came when the aurora went overhead and formed a corona, my first of Solar Cycle 25
