This is a 270º panorama of the May 10/11, 2024 great aurora display, when the Kp Index reached 8 this night bringing aurora to as far south as the southern U.S. Here, from my home in rural southern Alberta, Canada (latitude 51° N) we saw curtains strongly colored green and red from oxygen, but also pink and blue from nitrogen, with the latter colors unusually strong with pinks visible to the naked eye and purples and blues to the camera. Here the pinks stand out despite the extensive amount of cloud about. The panorama is an equirectangular projection spanning about 300º, and reaching almost to the zenith 90° high at top. But the projecton of the round sky onto a rectangular frame stretches and distorts the sky, including stars and aurora, along the top. Two other cameras are in the frame taking time-lapses. This a stitch of 17 segments, each 8-second exposures, with the Laowa 15mm lens at f/2 on the Canon Ra camera at ISO 1600, and turned to portrait orientation. Processed in Camera Raw and stitched with PTGui.
