Having missed a good night last night, I popped out to have a look but although there is a glow in the sky, I don't feel like getting frozen for that, there is no moon so there won't be any chance of usable ambient light to illuminate a subject structure to make the aurora a nice background.

To me although the aurora is nice, once you seen a few it's a bit lacking in interest in itself, a bit like star trails, what's needed is a nice subject with the aurora or star trails in the background. That calls for the moon and that's set at 8pm plus it's waning about 4% at the moment so it won't illuminate diddly!

Maybe tomorrow... o.O
