I walked outside and noticed a weird sky Sunday evening, checked to see if a geomagnetic storm was in progress, and started shooting. Space weather sites categorized it as extreme.
Here's a few quick picks. All were TIF's taken with the *ist D at ISO 400 and the FA 43/f1.9. There's a hundred or so more I haven't looked at yet, and a roll of Provia.

I'm sort of miffed that they didn't get put in the spaceweather.com gallery, as I sent them around 11:00 last night, and quite a few lackluster ones did.

I was thinking earlier if I should tell you guys that this was happening in the skies.
Last night the aurora borealis was visible even as south as France. This is very unusual.
I've been watching and waiting for the clouds to go away, but nope, they are persistent.
