Curtains of Light

Another capure of the incredible Aurora Borealis, I was able to capture over the Hudson Bay.

 

The green vortex from my last post slowly transformed into a wrapped curtain of green and pink light and the approaching day colorized the northeastern horizon, while a late Perseid ended its life in blazing glory under the well known constellation Big Dipper.

 

Can there be a luckier shot?
