I saw southern auroras last night!!!! Rakiura! Holy cow that was AMAZING

(View from a bit south of Arthur's Pass, New Zealand)

A nighttime view looking to the south, with the Milky Way stretching across the left portion of the photo, and the two Magellanic clouds visible as little puffs of cloudy stars, with blazingly bright pink and orange aurora pillars low on the horizon. The auroras are also visible reflected in a lake that's just barely visible in the starlight, with silhouetted mountains on each side of the image.
