Looking skyward into the aurora, it's interesting to see what patterns emerge as the electricity morphs into different shapes and colors.
More from Eagle Summit...
Here are a couple more photos from the most intense portion of the last night's display. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the activity was moderate (Kp=3), but being so close to the Arctic Circle, it still made for an excellent show. Eagle Summit was a great location - no light pollution whatsoever!
