The Northern Lights at the Yukon River in Circle, Alaska - latitude 65°49' on March 1, 2011
Observers at high latitudes witnessed strong auroral activity on March 1, 2011. The source of this disturbance was the arrival of a high speed coronal wind stream combined with a southward pointing interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), producing long periods of minor to major geomagnetic storm conditions (G2 on the NOAA scale) between 12:00-17:00 UTC on March 1.
Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mark II
Lenses: Canon EF 14mm f/2.8L, Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L and Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L
