Danish Draconids 2011 and Aurora Short 4 sec. exposures (light sensitive) and a light pollution filter made this picture possible in the moonlight glare. The Aurora came as a surprise, just for a few minutes above central Norway, it was photographed from Denmark (500 miles away). Shot over 1400 pho...

Welcome back here, Jesper Grønne! :D As for aurorae, I personally think it would be very nice to see an aurora in real life. But I'm so impressed that you managed to capture this aurora from Denmark. Or did you photograph it from somewhere further north? Since I couldn't enlarge the image by clicki...

The color of a star What is the color of a star - well the atmosphere seems to alternate the color, as it is seen in this star trail. The camera was slewing across the sky, during the exposure, leaving the tingling trail of alternating colors from a bright star. The camera was steady on Orion Nebul...

It looks manipulated to me.
Looks like you manipulated a bigger Moon into the halo-picture. The diameter of the Moon is half a degree, the halo is a 22 degree halo (radius). The Perigee Moon was big - but not that big.
