Great work Paul. I was lucky enough to be in Tasmania for this one.

Thanks Greg, I just saw your image. Certainly a similar display to what I saw at Penola on 1 March this year. The moon set occurred later for me too and I missed the best part of the activity. In the video you can see the auroral crown was a lot higher up in the moon light. Oh well next time.

It seems there is some problem with my video not being HD on vimeo. I am attempting to resolve the problem. Stay tuned.

Hey Paul, That Vid is really showing some real coool Aurora capers, & is facinating to see Apart from the colours and activity etc, seeing the Aurora from that distance is quite remarkable, I know they are active in the very upper reaches of the atmosphere, tho I for one didnt think the curtains could be had , allowing for the curvature of Earth etc, ,
Dam Niiice Show and capturing Paul

Bob, my dad was telling just last week how when he was a kid they could see aurora from Brighton in Adelaide. He talked about the curtains and how bright it was. No double this was a KP index of around 7 or 8. During the last cycle there was a display visible to the north of Adelaide. That was a KP7

Recently on 1 March I saw a display at KP5 and captured a green aurora with red on top.

Last year in August I got a capture from my house at Clayton Bay. It was quite visible and appeared grey to the eye.

The upshot is that given the right conditions you can see bright aurora from this neck of the woods. This display was minor and I am hoping for another chance or two yet for a bright display.
