The Aurora Borealis “The Piano Keys” often seen up here in Alaska, it reminds me of Piano Keys playing, as the magnetic field lines shift & pulse colors and shapes across the Aurora wall from one end of the sky to the other.
The constellation Leo is visible in the upper left, and Open Star Cluster M44 (Praesepe) The Beehive Cluster is at the top Center,
and between the two tall trees on the right is Orion’s Belt, above that is the Red Giant star Betelgeuse & the Red planet Mars is also above the trees. Finally in the lower center is city light pollution glow from Fairbanks, 60 miles away, and the lower far right is the orange glow from the waxing Crescent Moon setting behind clouds.(Sorry not a Sunset)
