Stars, Sprites, Clouds, Auroras
This picture appealed to me because it is a picture that is very down to Earth. It shows what I believe to be some auroras around a cabin. In the background towards the left there appears to be what looks like low-hanging clouds that are illuminated by the sunset. The top left corner of the picture contained small red marks that appear to be lines. The post that accompanies the picture states that the picture shows red sprites while photographing unexpected auroras over a thunderstorm. The picture was taken in 2013 in Minnesota. The comment states that the red sprites were most likely due to a lightning bolt that had occurred. The comment finishes by stating that this is only the second photo of sprites and auroras together and the first in true color.
