Milkyway rising at IISAC

[Irish stargazer]

Took this shot around 10pm last night from Lostock. Canon 7D Tokina 11-16mm lens and Polarie.
This is a 120 second shot with noise reduction on. There is a green tinge on the bottom of the frame. I am wondering if this is due to the aurora that was expected last night.
I love my Polarie :D

not so sure, as you are looking east not south, but it could be air glow from excited particles?

It's airglow.

There has been no activity aurora-wise. :(

A great photo John.

The exposure and colour is spot on.

The Polarie works well.
