Details:
I was out for auroras but it wasn't as good as I want it. It was more like a green foggy sky so I rigged down my auroral camera ready to go home. A few seconds later there appeared some auroral rays like sharp beams around Venus and the Pleiades.
I rapidly switched to a camera with a telephoto lens and got this interesting photo. In the picture you can se the aurora, Venus, the Pleiades and a satellite (the short dash top right). :-)
A few seconds later all aurora rays was gone! I might say that I was in good luck as got this unique photo. :-)
Regards MagnuM.
