Aurora Australis ✨

Who else was lucky enough to capture the beautiful Aurora Australis or Southern Lights over the weekend? 🤩

The Aurora Australis occurs when charged particles from the Sun collide with Earth’s atmosphere. Over the weekend, multiple coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from the Sun reached Earth causing a G5-level geomagnetic storm on Saturday night. These images were captured on Saturday night in Mornington Peninsula! 📸
