Summary

[edit]
Description Sunday evening I went out in search of the Aurora Borealis following some alerts that a major eruption had occurred on the sun and the chances for us to see the Northern lights. Alas that was not to be. I ended up taking some shots of the sky from Stover's Point in Harpswell. The Milky Way was clearly visible and there were thousands of stars in the moonless sky. I am still trying to see if I can improve the processing. I like this one as it has Ursa Major and Minor clearly visible. This is to the north where the lights should be it is also the one part of the sky with any clouds.
