The biggest Aurora Australis I have ever seen!
Oh what an amazing night!!

Sure enough the sky started to glow. We could see naked eye the big band of aurora. Although of course our eyes cannot perceive the colour that the camera gets when open for 20 seconds.
It was the most amazing Aurora Australis that I have ever seen.
