This is a roughly 180º panorama of the bright aurora, which had peaked at a Kp 6 to 7 level, on the night of May 28/29, 2025, shot from home in southern Alberta. The aurora was starting a post-substorm pulsing or flickering phase at this time. The arc displays some blue pillars and upper curtains from sunlight interacting with the aurora particles.

This is a roughly 240º panorama recording a faint appearance of the STEVE (Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement) sub-auroral arc on the evening of May 28, 2025, with a Kp6 to 7 level aurora storm underway in the twilight. This STEVE was dim, and in a still bright sky, and was just visible to the eye as a grey band. The camera revealed the colours and structure.

A panorama of the aurora of April 17, 2025 to the north here and reflected in the irrigation pond at home in Alberta. The aurora shows the classic green arc as well as magenta and red upper curtains. This night brought an arc of proton aurora before this. Jupiter and the Pleiades are setting over my house at left.

This is an 8-panel sequence showing the development and fading of an aurora on May 1, 2025, shot from home in southern Alberta at latitude 51º N. It shows the brightening of the main arc and appearance of tall red rays and upper blue curtains, over about 1 hour. The Kp Index was between 4 and 5 this night with the Bz south a good part of the time. This is looking northeast with the same framing for all images.

This is a 180º panorama of the Northern Lights across the northern sky on February 27, 2025 during a Kp4-level display. The Big Dipper is right of centre, while Polaris is at centre embedded in the auroral arc. Cassiopeia is at lower left in the nothwest. The aurora shows a complex of a classic arc with many swirls and sub-arcs to the north. In the distance to the northeast at lower right are some faint red structures.

A panorama of weak Kp1-level auroral arcs in the moonlight, on February 15, 2024, from the deck of the Churchill Northern Studies Centre, Manitoba. This is an example of the kind of low-level aurora that is almost always present at locations like Churchill under the main auroral oval. The northerly lower arc did not appear until close to midnight, as is typical for weak displays. It was then joined by the broad dim arc at centre reaching overhead. Note the dark streaks in the wide arc.

The arc of Northern Lights starting a show in the deep twilight over Prelude Lake on the Ingraham Trail near Yellowknife, NWT. This was September 9, 2019. Light from the waxing gibbous Moon behind the camera also illumimates the scene. The autumn colours make for a good contrast with the sky colours. This was from the lookout point above the lake and main parking area and boat launch.

A panorama of the extensive aurora of Oct 20/21,2023,from home in southern Alberta. The aurora coloured much of the sky,but was most prominent as a larrge diffuse arc across the north,with a more active structured arc low in the north. This was at local midnight,MDT.

An arc of modest aurora borealis (Northern Lights) across the northern horizon, above a prairie meadow in the light of a bright waxing gibbous Moon, a day before Full. This was just after midnight on July 11/12, 2022 when the sky was also still lit by summer twilight colours, and with a weak display of noctilucent clouds also visible low in the northwest at left. The auroral curtains exhibit the usual green band and rays, but also upper altitude reds and purples and a faint blue tint at the very tops where the aurora is lit by the Sun. The aurora was never bright this night (Kp Index was 3 or

A panorama of the Kp5-level aurora on May 27, 2022, from home, with the aurora displaying prominent magenta rays, created by the red oxygen emission blending with illumination from blue scattered sunlight at high altitudes, common around the summer solstice when the high atmosphere is lit all night long. As a bonus, a dim STEVE arc is forming at far right, to the south of the main auroral oval where STEVE normally appears. STEVE faded, then returned to become more strong and visible across the sky from east to west as the main aurora to the north faded.

An arc of a Kp-5 aurora over a wheatfield from home in southern Alberta. The panorama takes in the northern stars, from the Big Dipper and Ursa Major at left, to the W of Cassiopeia at top right of centre, with Perseus below Cassiopeia, and Andromeda and Pegasus at right. Moonlight from the waxing gibbous Moon low in the southwest illuminates the scene. Jupiter is rising at far right low in the southeast. This was taken when the display was at its most active. An hour later as it was fading STEVE appeared in a fabulous show.

This captures a panorama of the northern sky over the foreground landscape of Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta, with the waning Moon rising, and an arc of Northern Lights above the northern horizon. A Kp6 show was forecast for this night but nothing spectacular materialized -- we had just a quiescent arc across the north.

One of a series of images showing the STEVE arc appearing in the east and developing brighter. This was August 7-8, 2022, from southern Alberta, Canada at about 12:25 am MDT. This shows a faint green-white band on the left edge of the main pink arc.

The rising "supermoon" of July 12, 2022 embedded in the blue arc of Earth's shadow, rimmed by the pink Belt of Venus band of twilight colours, all over the badlands formations of Dinosaur Provincial Park on the Red Deer River in Alberta, Canada. The blue arc is the shadow of the Earth cast onto the atmosphere opposite the sunset point. The pink Belt of Venus is from red sunlight still illuminating the upper atmosphere, an effect that lasts only a few minutes at sunset or sunrise, and requires a very clear sky to show up, as it was this night.
