Albany Aurora & Airglow

I was out new years night chasing aurora along the south coast of WA. Albany is as far south as I can get, and the forecast looked good. 3 small bursts of aurora showed up at Kp 3-4 levels, which surprised me a little being this far north. In addition, a nice chunk of green glowing airglow drifted in. Probably the brightest, most structured airglow I've seen.
