Richard J. Bartlett@capture907 Wow - what's the time frame on that? I see the Dipper but it's not moving so I'm guessing it's not a great amount of time
@astronomywriter It's about 70 minutes of time.
Toxteth O'Grady@capture907 I was told the weirdness extended as far south as lower Minnesota...
Chuck Berray@capture907 Best show in Anchorage in years!
John Leopold@capture907 This is amazing! Thank you.
thefathippyJust. Wow.
Grumpy Penguin 🇦🇺 🇮🇱 🕯️Oh wow!
It's so great to see all the amazing aurora photos from around the world
Especially as the cloud has moved in over my part of the world. Talk about the worst possible timing 
MW1CFN@capture907 Full substorm conditions! The effect of the aurora on long-distance HF radio signals is just magical - and on the higher HF bands, signals can be bounced off the aurora to make local contacts:

enmodo ⚛️ 🧬 🇺🇦 🍉@capture907 with night skies like that who even needs that recreational marijuana?
Jason Meaden@capture907 @Gargron That’s the same colour as my envy of you getting to experience that.

Rob McMinn@capture907 Best enjoyed with the theme tune to Doctor Who playing, I think
GDR!@capture907 what is aurora normally like? Does it shine a few hours with varying intensity or do you get a spectacle like this for a few minutes and the rest of the night is dark?
@gdr most nights when it is visible it’s bursts of light and very little. On big nights it’s very bright fast moving nights with periods of more glowing.
@capture907 Thank you for explaining that!
TriciaB@capture907 Fabulous. 👏
АКай@capture907 красотище
Wu Evar 🇪🇺🇺🇦@capture907 I always asked myself: is this real-time or time-lapse?
DB SchweinTitle? “What my camera saw” says nothing about speed-up/post editing.
Apologies if this sounds like a dumb question, I just don’t know
and I’m curious/not trolling.
@maschinentraum
No stress :-) Not the post, but the title of the video itself indicates it's a timelapse:

@deirdrebeth Ah I don’t see this title (using Ivory) 😲 Thank you! 😁
@maschinentraum this is about an hour of time.
@capture907 Thank you! 🙏🏻Could you upload maybe one minute in real-time? I’ve never seen auroras myself and wondering how they look when you actually look at them.

Attached: 1 video This is a video of Sun night's aurora is shown in normal speed. I was able to make out the reds with my naked eyes which is very rare, especially given a half moon was out and I was just on the outskirts of town. What an amazing experience to lift my spirits! Please enjoy! #Alaska #NorthernLights
@capture907 thank you so much! 🙏🏻
Frankie@capture907 Hooray for the Earth's magnetic field; keeping us protected and putting on a cool light show for millions of years!
CPrompt^@capture907 wow! Next big trip will be to Alaska hopefully! Been wanting to go to see the aurora for years
Jake Sawyer@capture907 wowza!!!
Denis de Palatis@capture907 very nice! Is this 1x speed?
@denisdepalatis Photos were exposed for 1.6 seconds, with a small gap of time between each photo. Each frame of this video is photo with a frame rate of 25 FPS. It's about 70 minutes of photos in 28 seconds or 140x normal speed.

charles ex@msgbi @capture907 Back in the 70s, I laid in the grass and watched a similar light show. I was lucky, they don't often occur in the continental US.
Earthling@capture907 I would love to see the aurora lights one day.
Dr. Heather Etchevers@capture907 A friend in Uppsala also shared similar photos last night. Thanks for posting - that was gorgeous!
DΛNIEL TʘMΛN@capture907 @Gargron @Mastodon amazing video, I would enjoy it even more without this giant “ALT” banner overlay on top! #bugreport (iOS Mastodon app on iPhone 12 Mini)

Ruben Lar@capture907 Incredibly strong Aurora you captured there, Where were the pictures taken?
What camera settings did you use?
I also had a small timelapse made on Monday 27 February in Larvik in the south of Norway. https://youtu.be/1cmJ3stZvDg
Taken with my Canon R5 with RF15-35mm F2.8 8sec in 10 sec interval.
It is an incredible experience to see the Aurora Borealis, especially as far south as I live in Norway. The big challenge here is that it is often cloudy when the Aurora is strong enough for us to see it this far south. In Tromsø in the north of Norway, it is very common to see the Aurora when the sky is cloudless and it is dark. The best time is from October to the end of March.

@RubenLar Nice! Shot in Anchorage, Alaska. We often have a cloud problem too, like tonight. Feb-Mar are generally more clear skies here than Sept to Jan.
They were shot at 20mm F2.0 1.6 seconds ISO800
Melroy van den Berg@capture907 very spacey😳! This looks insane.
franco_vazza@capture907 out of this world. I can see plasma instabilities rolling out across the field of view, never seen anything like that!
The Casual Craftsman@capture907 this is amazing! Never seen myself irl so really appreciate you sharing this.
Hedgehog@capture907 they were very bright in UP of Michigan too i stood outside in the cold in my jammies with a jacket on watching
John Einselen@capture907 Incredible, thank you so much for sharing!
