Aurora by Moonlight

Explanation: The ice was singing as light from a bright gibbous Moon cast shadows across this frozen lake , about 20 kilometers north of Stockholm, Sweden, planet Earth. In the alluring night skyscape captured on February 10 , shimmering auroral curtains of light dance in the evening sky. On that northern night nature's performance included the auroral displays fostered by a minor geomagnetic storm. Stormy space weather was the result of a coronal mass ejection, erupting from a solar prominence days earlier and brushing our fair planet's magnetosphere.
