Green Airglow (sadly not aurora)

Well it certainly turned green last night but not the aurora green that a lot of us were hoping for. Some of the strongest airglow that I have ever picked up on camera.
Random frame from a five hour time lapse whilst waiting and wishing.

So green! Couldn't see anything visually but was very evident on the back of the camera.

Beautiful image Greg,

I hope you don't mind, I tried a simple ABG in Nebulosity.
Original left, Auto Background Correction Right.
It lessens the effect of the green airglow but really makes the
galaxy more contrasty? Your detail in the Milky Way is sublime.

Don't mind at all Steve. In fact I am very interested in learning more about processing images in Nebulosity now. It has obviously really effected the clouds for the worse, but it has certainly made the Milky Way better. Might have to look into it a bit more........
