Goatshead Bluff Aurora

[adavis]

This is a re-edit of a Pano that I didnt take much notice of after I shot it.
I have quickly processed this image before, quickly, to see what the pano came out like, but I was never happy with it.
Now I have more processing experience under my belt, Im much happier with the image.

Goatshead Bluff, South Arm, Hobart, Tasmania.
January 3rd 2014, the last night before I flew home, and the first cloudless night in 2 weeks.
The Aurora wasnt firing beams when I shot this pano, but it did a few hours later that I caught with a time lapse.
Canon 7D, Tokina 11-16 @ 11mm, f3.2, ISO3200, 31 seconds exp.
It is 25 frames stitched to the single image.

Thanks guys, appreciate the feedback.
My goal is to shoot this location again with the 6D and Samyang, should get me much lower noise results, and hopefully I'll luck out this time and get a cracker of an aurora.
