Details:
Last night we had an awesome aurora display! Never had I seen so bright auroras. They lit the whole scenery. I could have been able to read a magazine with ease.
It begun around 7:30pm at local time, when the sky was still bright. At around 8pm the auroras lit up to the extreme and I asked our daughters to come and see them. And boy, were the girls excited!
After the girls fell asleep, I drove to a bog some thirty kilometers away from my house. When I got there, the auroras were nothing but a greenish smudge of an arch. But soon, around midnight, they went crazy! I had to reduce the exposure time to two seconds in order to prevent overexposure!
The best night ever.
