Hi All,
With more active Sun I thought I'd try to image some Auroral activity and as soon as the clouds went away (sort of) I went to Cape Schanck and set up the time lapse.
Although there was not much of Aurora show that night, the planets, Milky Way, low flying clouds and passing ships produced an interesting result:

An image with the planetary conjunction is below.
Time lapse and still image details:

Cheers,
Alex
