HOLY HIGH-ENERGY SOLAR WIND PARTICLES! I can see the aurora by eye! MY FIRST TIME EVER!!! The bright star in the middle is Deneb. The glow shows up way better in photos. Holy wow. Wow.

Pretty exciting, isn’t it!!! Great photo!

Central North Carolina, just barely visible with my eye

First timer here too! UK.

There is really nothing as amazing as a good aurora you can see just by going out and looking. Wish I was at the farm tonight!

Everybody who cares is out shooting aurora photos tonight. At one dark field I saw 20 cars pulled off beside the road.

Your opening sentence is 🔥🔥🔥

I saw it for the first time when it dipped way south a few months back and boy it was way cooler than I expected. And I'm not even an expert! Mazel tov.

I’m getting this down in Tennessee…

You are exactly where you are supposed to be 🫶🏻✌🏻

Yup even here in light polluted New Jersey, and even NYC, the whole northern sky lit up after sunset!
