I might have seen my first aurora — rather subtle, but the iPhone brought out the colours. Thanks to Ian Griffin's tipoff post from last night. This was around 5 am at Waikawa Beach, north of Wellington.

Subtle Aurora. Aurora reds. Aurora forecast southern hemisphere shows activity south of New Zealand.

@Miraz beautiful! I tried to capture the one visible in Poland earlier this year but I both wasn’t out late enough and there was too much light pollution. The night mode on the iPhone does amaze me though.

@Miraz Fantastic! It is so cool to see the lights. We were lucky to see them back in May. It was cloudy last night but, tonight seems clear. Hope to catch them along with some Perseid meteors.

@ReaderJohn It was a stunning sky this morning too. Also, bitterly cold.

@alexandra I missed that amazing display unfortunately. So thrilled to have seen it at last, even if subtle.
