My bucket list includes watching an aurora.
This evening, we’ve had our best view to date. Aurora Australis put on a show, with greens and purples in a wide arc across the southern sky, including vertical beams of light.
These photos are straight from our camera, no editing of colours.
It was a mild 14°C, on a beach just ten minute’s drive from home. Gotta love Tasmania!
Lucky you 🙂 Lovely!

Oh, these are really wonderful Ruth. I would love to se the aurora, but last time I heard of it we never saw it, it was to cloudy so I am glad you did so I can look at your puctures.

Thanks AJ. I was envious of a London friend who went to Paris for lunch recently, but she reminded me she doesn’t get to see an aurora!
