Not sure what the iPhone is doing, but it’s on the low light capture mode It defaults to. Didn’t filter it or anything.
yeah that’s the long exposure which is helping with the visibility. Sounds like it looks pretty faint for most people here but with the long exposure you get those glaring colors.

First picture was taken at 9:09. The streak picture was taken around 9:30. It lasted until around 10:15 or so.
so that was nearly an hour before I went outside then. I must’ve missed it. Hopefully it intensifies come the middle of the night. When I’m staying in MT a couple times of year and there’s supposed to be a great chance of seeing the Aurora I always miss it because i find out it happened in the middle of the night. Guessing that should be the same case here where it’d be most visible in the dead of night around 2-3 am or so

Yep. In north AL it is slightly visible with the naked eye. The longer exposure pics show pretty good.

People have been blowing up Facebook down here in Spanish fort but we didn’t see shite. Until I took a pic and bam. There it was. Now I’m curious if the phone catches it other nights too.

Yeah, the night shot long exposure captures light from the Target and Wendy's signs. That's your aurora borealis.

I couldn't help but to sing praises to The Creator even if I tried not to.

We are little itty bitty helpless insignificant, non-important things. We think we're not, but we are.


No greater than a mouse in the cupboard, we are.


[11] Greatness, power, splendor, glory, and majesty are yours, Lord,because everything in heaven and on earth is yours.The kingdom is yours, Lord,and you are honored as head of all things




Selah.

If you can't see with the naked eye, does it count? I did that with my phone and got light brown. Whoopee.

I thought that was my picture. Had to check to see if I posted that

All I’ve seen so far too but after looking at the pic I could barely barely make it out with naked eye after seeing where to look at
