Aurora Pano

Hello all,

I was fortunate enough to be in Tasmania for the large aurora display on the 15th. I hooked up with fellow Ice In Spacer and aurora chaser James Garlick and headed to one of his favorite locations Goats Bluff on South Arm. I have hundreds of images from this night including three timelapse sequences that I will get around to putting online one day. This is an eight image panorama from early on in the night. Later on we moved further down the beach to another spot and the aurora really kicked off with a proton arc and "picket fence" formation directly overhead- which matt captured so well from Victoria. Unfortunately the persistent thin cloud moving through made it difficult to get clear shots of this and the full dome panorama that I did during this period has so far proved impossible to stitch properly. I have included one of the images pointing straight up at the picket fence and proton arc.

Aurora Australis from Goats Bluff, Tasmania. 15/08/2015.
