went out and took some photos of tonight's aurora.
not quite as spectacular as last October when i did this, completely invisible to the naked eye, but the pink is still quite pretty when viewed through a long exposure

(this is with a 12mm wide angle prime lens, on a canon eos r100)

we met a kindly old woodcarver next to a waterfall who talked to us about torii, wood carving, and gave us sweets
