Glad folks like the photo. I had fun taking it. It was shot from our front porch in Orinda looking north about midnight, Thursday night/Friday morning. I could barely see the aurora with my naked eye — it looked like a fuzzy pink patch. But my Sony A7R5 with a Sony 16-35mm GM lens picked it up well, as you can see. That’s a 3.5 sec. exposure at f5.6 and 6400 ISO, if any photo geeks are interested. You can see a few more on my Instagram feed (@heymanfoto) or on my website (https://heymanfoto.smugmug.com/ ) at the end of the Photojournalism gallery.
Thanks for sharing. Any idea of the time this was taken?
Perhaps the maker will enlighten us…
I always miss the good stuff.
