went to see some northern lights on sunday!
Tuesday, 25 April 2023 09:54Hi y'all! Night before last my family drove out to see an aurora thingy whatever it's called (aurora storm? show? idk haha northern lights) but anyways I got some pretty cool photos that I wanted to share! Obviously they're not Google Images quality but I thought they were still pretty good :D (I took them using Night Sight on my phone lol)
Here's the first photo I took, when we first arrived at our location:

Barely anything is visible yet, but there's a faint purple glow.
In my fourth photo the glow is much stronger and a faint pillar appears on the left side:

Then the other colors started to appear, rich shades of blue and white:

The eighth photo is where the green starts to come out: (this is my favourite photo)

And here's when things started to die down a bit.

That was my last photo, taken at about 0:50. We were an hour away from home so I went to sleep at around 2:00. I got less than five hours of sleep before school haha but it was fine in the end :) This was my first time seeing the northern lights and it was awesome! Also my dad made a sick timelapse so I'll try to upload it here when he's finished editing!
