Great shot. I took this in Atlanta, GA about 10pm EST. The sky definitely had a very slight pink / purple hue you could see with the naked eye. Northern lights or some sort of lens flare?

Is the video time stamp accurate? The big surge came through about 2-2:30am edt?

Meanwhile it was cloudy here in the mid-Atlantic. :-(

What was the location and exposure time?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Exposure was 10 seconds, and so I don’t dox myself I’ll say virginia.

Closer to the equator than I thought! Was it clearly visible to the naked eye?

Not too visible, saw shades of reds and greens and streaking like rain when I took that one.

in NC i saw a faint red/pink/magenta glow over the whole sky for a little while. it was as bright as the sky normally is about 45 minutes after sunset when you can only see the brightest stars and planets. the stars looked like they turned pink
