during last solar max Paul Anderson used to get mindblowing shots/shows from Ulverston, Tasmania, usually out the front of his house lol .. I think I remember him saying that far northern tassie was pretty good, because it suffered less often from cloud cover than the south of tassie did, but was still ideally situated . and if the name of the game is seeing southern lights from Aussie soil, framed with southern night sky .. well .. doesnt get much better?
some of his pics
