great mix of green and red airglow.. nothing wrong with your colour balance! (although one green set in the middle looks *very* saturated).
You are right, it wasn't easy convincing myself to set up cameras on Saturday night...

I guess you refer to the northern sky with telescopes sequence at 1:33. That was on the fourth night and the sky was the brightest of all nights. I could see that glow in the north with the naked eye as a brighter arch with a slight green tint. I have not touched the saturation in post processing at all - it came out like that from Sony NEX-5. If it was not in the northern sky I would have mistaken it for Aurora.

Cheers,
Alex
