The framing with the milky way and M clouds really makes for a great pic added to that the reflections in the water this really is a great astronomical pic. I think you should send it to all the Northern Hemisphere magazines so those up north can see what the,re missing out on.
Cheers Derek

Thanks for the suggestion, Derek. I'll give it a shot when I return to Perth.

I think the preponderance of red we see in southern aurora pics is because we're further away and see more of the high altitude red and less of the lower altitude green. My images from Norway are mostly green with hints of red and purple.

Cheers,
Rick.

Thanks Rick. Yes, and we don't get to see many images from the south. Some of the best images I've seen are from mid latitudes.

Thanks mate. Would have been great to share it with like minded people. The beach was deserted... a crying shame.

I'm sure you'll nail another one, Greg. Good luck in Tas.
