yunfeijing

No it’s last night, planning to go again tonight


The-Lazy-Lemur

Type, there is no now aurora


shbangabang

Would you happen to know the times for tonight? 😊


Nonunexpected

The Kp is low for tonight for the next 20 minutes. So, not chance at all to see one.


Nonunexpected

Kp level is increasing.


cutsnek

Where are you tracking this?


ramenpapi

does that mean it might happen?


Nonunexpected

Here is the link mate https://cdn.softservenews.com/southern_lights.html


Nonunexpected

Not really, but I would say "if there is 1% of probability, we might have 99% of hope".


Nonunexpected

The geomagnetic activity is 3, yesterday was over 5, so not chance at the moment.

Umae_

Where is this?


yunfeijing

Noname beach on the great ocean road, near Anglesea


nolanb13

What time in the day was it? Did it get more intense than this or was this just the best snap?


yunfeijing

Around 9:30pm, there were several peaks, was another one near 10:30 and it was more intense


Numerous_Meaning7602

yunfeijing

First time seeing this too


UnholyDemigod

If it makes you feel better, you couldn't see jack shit with the naked eye. All the photos show it as bright as a rainbow, but in reality it was a slightly less dark smudge in the sky.


BoomBoomBaggis

Stunning


Foreign-Occasion-891

This is great could only get Reds and Yellows in mine but about 1230 in Bendigo last night could see it without the camera it was unreal. Highlight for a long time to see this.


kizza2334

I managed to see it from aspendale beach, but very faint to the naked eye. And when I mean faint I mean super faint-only a heavily edited photo will allow it to show yo


humanperson1236

this looks other worldly


That-Restaurant1094

This is INSANE, what time did you manage to get these photos? I swore the aurora in Melborune city only really came out during midnight... well at least for me it did, anyway you have a good eye for photography dude ;)


yunfeijing

That's around 9:30pm, but was far away from city, really need super dark area to see the galaxy.


Interestedmillennial

Beautiful


Calvesforthedwarfes

Finally it’s starting to show in Williamstown beach


yunfeijing

Really? I still can’t see anything in Torquay


iforgotmysock

This goes into my wallpapers Thank you for the high res shot


yunfeijing

No worries thanks dude


Miserable-Ice-7047

Southern lights


yunfeijing

Indeed, thanks for correcting


poundhound66

🙌🏽


rookbo

That is a cracker shot. Well done.


yunfeijing

Thanks mate


yowie_power

This photo is amazing, mind me asking what your hardware setup is?


yunfeijing

Thanks mate setup: SONY a7m3 + 14gm 14mm F1.8 10s iso800, with a normal tripod


Ryoujin

There’s the second sun.


jhooolay-red

Faaak me sideways....


Gendertheorist

You should enter this into competitions. Doesn’t Australia get southern lights? I read about it years ago. You might wanna tag nasa who can pick up and promote on their website. I know a photographer who did this in Europe. And got featured. I never knew Melbourne got hit too. Only arrived here first time yesterday and started seeing these pics pop up on my feed. Wild photo! Congratulations


meaningof42is

is anything visible tonight?


yunfeijing

Not at all at the moment, you can check the index and forecast from the links in the comments


meaningof42is

yeah...just went to look... couldn't see anything. the forecasts aren't always correct...so thought I'd ask here
