A panorama of an arc of Northern Lights, taken from home on February 28, 2021, with a Kp 4 to 6 level aurora and geomagnetic storm in progress. But it was fading by the time the sky cleared from home this night. I shot this about 11:05 pm. MST. To the eye the aurora looked colourless and was difficult to tell apart from the moonlit high clouds. But even in Live View, the camera distinctly showed the green auroral arc. The display never got very bright in the time I was watching and shooting. This is a panorama of 5 segments with the Rokinon SP 14mm lens at for 15 seconds each, and with the Canon EOS Ra at ISO 400, stitched with Adobe Camera Raw. I blended in an additional selfie segment taken right after the pan segments, to add me into the scene. A mild Orton Glow effect added to the foreground with Luminar AI.
