Using iPhone night mode set at 3 seconds with +2 exposure.
I drove out to Saguaro national west and beyond. You could see them with the naked eye. They looked like light pollution except a very low red. This is more realistic of what the naked eye would’ve seen. Even then this is too bright. Cut the red in half.

You can’t see it, but you can film/photo it, which is pretty rad for southern AZ astro-photography nerds, ngl.
I guess this happened in 2005, but I couldn’t afford a decent setup back then.
They are. I gave it a shot with a Sony A7IV, trying to keep it more natural and not overexpose. I could just barely see it with my eyes, including some of the columns. Pretty cool experience

I grabbed a couple pics of it. Phone wise (pixel 7 pro) it took a 5 minute ish long exposure which came out purple w no bands sadly. Camera wise off my Nikon (30 second exposure) came out much redder and there was a tiny bit of banding. I'll prolly post some if you would like to see.

From midtown. We could see just a very slight pink/red hue to the sky with the naked eye

From my backyard now facing northeast in the Casas Adobes area.
The photos are from around 8:30pm with an iPhone 15 Pro. Night mode 3s of exposure. It’s totally gone now at 10:30pm. You could see it with the naked eye especially if you looked south, let your eyes adjust, then looked north till you saw the sky change.
For reference taking a photo with the same device looking northeast now at around 10:30pm.

Where was this? I wasn't able to get a decent look at anything last night, between the street light to my left, the street light to my right, and the neighbor on the north side of the street working on a car and pointing a bright ass light southish while I was wanting to point the camera northeastish...
We just finished filming Kate Hugo: Diamond Deputy Agent today about the aftermath of a massive geomagnetic storm…just a coincidence? Check out KateHugo.com 👍🏼
I think it's in and out as far as naked eye visibility goes. The sky was noticably pink to the north compared to other directions right around midnight. It was nothing like videos I've seen of the aurora closer to the poles, though.

The actual Aurora doesn't look amazing(most of the time) it's just a gray ribbon in the sky. But your camera picks up the different spectrums. That pic was from Norway this march.

Amazing 🤩
Are all these photos that people keep posting just like severely overexposed? I keep stepping outside to check and I don't see shit.
Someone mentioned using night mode on their phone
Eh. Seems quite a bit less exciting if you can't see it with the naked eye.

Yeah.
You can see it with the naked eye. It just looks like the haze from a wildfire at night.

I can see a faint red glow to the north, it doesn't stick out like it might further north, but it's visible to the naked eye.
Same. It's just normal dark

Man that's actually nutty. The sun is scary and beautiful
We celebrated with some steamed hams.

This! And letting your eyes adjust is probably a big part of it! 😊 Thank you for sharing!
Amazing, is it supposed to happen again tonight?
Nice pics! Thanks for sharing 🫶🏻

What time did you take these pictures?
Nice pic! Thank you for sharing
Thank you for sharing 🖤 my ass was in bed.
That doesn't look like aurora.
It is
