Thanks to all for the generous comments. Here is a selection of some more photos. The first few show the aurora first punching through thin cloud, then the cloud breaking up.
The fisheye and the pano look like they are labelled the wrong way round. i enabled profile corrections on the fisheye which corrected to a rectilinear rendition. The panorama was captured with the lens pointing up rather than horizontal and my software rendered a barrel distorted curved horizon line.
Despite a reasonably good night's sleep last night, I am still a little tired but ever so glad I "went the extra mile."
cheers
Joe
