Looks crazy man! Where abouts did you go to take them?

I'm hunting for a spot to go and have a look and do some photos..

Can't imagine it is visible from Vic all that often - great stuff!

I remember as a kid once seeing the sky afire in Melbourne just like that...

Stunning. Still hard to imagine we can see an aurora in Australia. I love the mix of colours, and would have to pick the 1st one as my pick. Mainly because the lights are strongest then, and the larger number of stars hides the noise in the sky.

Like above, this is totally on my bucket list now
