You guys, because I care about you, the weirdos that follow me on #Twitter: A #NorthernLights thread! ⬆️💡
Here's #Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE), and #ISS Expedition 63. Not much of a light show, but it counts. @csa_asc
August is the best time to visit @Algonquin_PP. This is Lake Traverse.
Haven't seen one like this for a while. #Solar #minimum This was near Magnetawan several years ago.
My partner in crime. Nothing like standing outside all night when it's -25° C hoping the interplanetary magnetic field will be south.
This was south of me one time. Pretty unusual at this latitude.
Caught this somewhere between Regina and Brandon. It was a pretty amazing drive that night.
Self portrait. The Trans #Canada Highway is very straight between Regina and Brandon. This is a 30 second exposure at 100 km/h. Also visible: #Taurus Camera is on a tripod jammed against the passenger seat. 6.5mm lens, and an intervalometer.
Another with the #ISS. This was during the 2015 #Perseid #meteor shower with @Astro_yyz
Throw in some #fireflys and some star trails. #DoneToDeath #cliché
Foggy night. On #humid nights, #dew is a problem. I use hand warmers on my #lenses to keep them clear. Nothing worse that driving 4 hours and having your lens fog up all night.
Another #ISS #photobomb
With #comet c/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy)
Trying to replicate @TTLastSpring's sketch. He painted the #NorthernLights in @Algonquin_PP
Once @Astropartigirl and I did a road trip. Sadly not the best light show, but #NorthernLights are like cats or something. Or maybe that's #comets. #stillcounts
Northern Lights with #zodiacal light.

In the spring under dark skies, you may be able to see zodiacal light in the west just after dark. In the fall, you can see it in the morning before sunrise.
This was an amazing night.
And over #Mitchell Lake.
I was fortunate to see the #northernlights over the #hoodoos one time, but during the day I decided to drive to #Banff. I got stuck in traffic, and missed the best part.

Lesson learned: Don't drive to Banff if you want to see #AuroraBorealis in #Drumheller.
I should have stayed in #Rouleau but hit the road, so I missed getting the Dog River elevator with the #northernlights in the background. Had to settle for this. #Regret Oh well, next time. @CornerGas
You see some weird and amazing stuff some times. #lookup
