This morning I was at, our lake house, doing some starscapes on the beach. I noticed a slight green tint on the lakes surface. I turned around and faced north and show the tell tale signs of the Northern Lights. Going to the back of our lot to a small opening I found this outstanding display of a "Magic Curtain"

Wow, It has always been my dream to see one with my own eyes. About the photo, you have seven shades of color and thats amazing! I love how vivid the purple colors are on top and the way they blend into the green. Well done.
