Lunch Time Show


I finished up my lunch quickly today because we could see auroras on the aurora cam screen in the galley and headed outside. The moon was out, and normally you can't see aurora when the moon is above the horizon so these must have been very bright auroras. They were moving very fast and small high energy bright streaks were pin wheeling around and running up and down the bands of light. In the picture below you can see a couple of the flecks of detail that dance around too quick for my camera to usually capture in the top right.
Someone was able to get some real time aurora video (as opposed to time-lapse like I do, you need and super fancy camera for real time, that is cutting edge camera magic right there).
 Someone taking pictures happened to get into my shot.
Someone else unknowingly walked in front of my camera to look at the auroras and it turned out quite nicely.
