Red sky at night.........

Aurora Australis, Southern NSW, Australia. 20/02/2014

For those who are at higher latitudes than my -35 degrees location in Australia there has been some great aurora activity over the past few days.  Given my position the aurora activity was not strong enough to get any of those wonderful greens but I was still able to pick up the higher altitude reds/pinks/purples low down on the horizon.  I was heading home from playing tennis when I decided to pull over to the side of the road to do a test shot as I knew there was a chance of aurora and I had picked up a little bit of colour the previous night in between clouds.  Needless to say it was quite a long time before I eventually made it home.
Canon 5D MkII, 14mm, F/2.8, ISO 3200, 30 seconds.
