Details:
Although not visible to my eyes, the camera had no difficulty capturing the aurora to the north. The aurora extends upwards almost to Polaris (circled) at 35° elevation. There was also some green airglow mixed in.

The photograph was taken at Wupatki National Monument, a Dark Sky Park in northern Arizona.

1940 MST 19 January 2026 (UTC-7).

Nikon D850, 12mm fisheye lens, f/2.8, 13 seconds, ISO 1600.
