I got this shot over Lake Superior looking north from Munising in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Having never seen or photographed one I was wondering if this an aurora? It's looking north. Sun normally sets way over to the left. It's 10:30pm Oct. 12. The light on the right side of tree is cast from passing automobiles on east to west highway behind me.
It was a 25 sec. exposure. Minimal Photoshop work, just brightness, contrast, sharpening and a little straightening. (It was pitch black out.}
Yes Yes Yes Do you not wish you were 100 miles north. Some spectacular auroras are being posted in Norwegian places.
Yes that is an aurora, or a scene from National Lampon's Christmas vacation!
