Description
On a cold winter night, the Milky way was up high in the northern sky. The dawn was coming in less than an hour and low on the horizont stars were getting washed out already. Yet, there was additional glow - the rare pink aurora borealis was there on my frame! Eyes could not perceive it, it was way too dim.

Seeing a pink aurora is rare, with your own eyes unbelievably rare. Nice work!
Maria Dimitrova replied:
Thank you, Tom! I'm lucky to live at 60 N lattitude and already at Kp 4 it is possible to see some beautiful glow. I look forward to solar activity resuming again. It has been at its minimum in the past couple of years.
