I always thought the first time I had a chance to see and photograph the Aurora it would be somewhere like Iceland, or Alaska. I was wrong. It was in New Mexico! 😂

Good morning!

Another appeal sent re. the spam filter. No response so far.

I have access to other Bluesky accounts. Checked the Discover feed. No random kink. 🤨
