Quetico Aurora - a photo on Flickriver

Quetico Aurora

            Plans were to visit Quetico Provincial Park in Southwestern Ontario, Canada in 2020 but COVID-19 caused a closure of the border. After considerable delay, and adjustment of previous plans we were able to return and experience this world-class canoe destination again. For much of the 12 day/11 night trip cloudy conditions obscured the sky in the evenings, but a few nights were clear and calm so I set up a camera to photograph through the night. We never observed any aurora while we were awake, so it wasn't until we returned home that I was able to view what we had missed. This image was taken only 45 minutes after we went to sleep for the evening. What a surprise to find an aurora build up, then fade away across a few hours of shooting!
