I haven't had much to post on TSS lately.
At this time of year, at my latitude, I don't get dark skies.
I do, however, have increased chances of catching some of these.

Hmmm... Somehow the saturation looks very high in the version I've uploaded. It might be my browser's settings.
When I view my original in Photoshop and on desktop image preview, the colours are more subtle, but certainly still there.

Nice image Steven, what time of night was that?

A nice image Steven, I like the colouring.

Hey, thanks.
It was about 11PM, looking almost due North.

Is this any different to you?
For starters, I wanted to check if SRGB is saved in the color pallette.
It is in this one, somehow wasn't in the first.

Nice!...but kind of weird when thinking about how late it was taken. I suspect you really do not need daylight savings time in the summer.

Nice work Steven; real Aurora feel to it - hard to think it is clouds, our frequent adversaries

Beautiful colours Steven!

Congratulations Steven on having your image selected as todays TSS APOD!!!

Nice image Stephen and congrats on winning today's APOD!

Hi Steven. Well, you were in the right northern latitude and very observant at the right time to catch this phenomenon. This is a fantastic nightscape of the noctilucent clouds. They usually start after the Summer Solstice, and you caught the beautiful striations of the ice crystal clouds (and sometimes with rising methane gas to emphasize their appearance) high up in the mesosphere at astronomical twilight. I love the details and colors in your capture and it is well framed. This is textbook quality work Steven, and congratulations on winning the well deserved TSS APOD Award today.

Woowee!
Thank you, everyone who voted!

By the way, I've got more. The following day the NLC's were even more spectacular, reaching almost overhead. I didn't know that was even possible.
Unfortunately I was without my camera until I could walk a long way back to the house, pick it up, and walk back out. By then they were much diminished, and in my hurry, I didn't swap a suitable lens on it.

I'm still a little nonplussed by the way my browser's colour palette has gone extremely saturated. Either you aren't seeing the blob of cyan that I'm seeing on your screens, or you all actually like it that way!

Excellent and Congrats on the APOD!

Stunning image of a difficult image. Gotta be at the right place and the right time.
