This picture was taken by Larry Koehn early Sunday morning (May 15)

Can you believe this picture? Local astronomer/photogropher Larry Koehn has been sending us great pictures over the years of astronomical phenomena. This is one of the prettiest.
This is a 20 second exposure, letting more light in the camera, and making the aurora brighter.
