Last night wasn’t just a visit to Rapahoe Beach, it was a seat on the front porch of the galaxy. When the light faded and the aurora slipped behind the hills, it left nothing behind but a spectacular gallery of photos and the hum of adrenaline still coursing through me.

Absolutely, New Zealand and Australia had a spectacular show. The weather was challenging in my location but at least there was a window of opportunity to take some photos 📷

On the rugged shores of the Tasman Sea, where the 10 Mile Bluff meets the endless horizon, an extraordinary sight unfolded. As twilight embraced the land, a multi-colored aurora danced across the sky, painting the heavens in vibrant hues of green, purple, and pink. The shimmering lights reflected off the waters below, creating a mirror image of the celestial spectacle. Standing there, feeling the cool breeze and the gentle sound of the waves, it was as if nature itself was weaving a tapestry of magic and wonder, a moment frozen in time, shared between the earth and the sky.

Tha famous "Formally The Blackball Hilton" on the night of May 11th 2024.

With peak Solar Wind Speed of 1000km/s and Bz of -50nT. It might be awhile before we see them kind of figures again!

This image was still taken while it was light outside. This kind of photo shouldn't be possible in NZ.

Thunderstorm over the Tasman sea late at night on the Wild Westcoast of New Zealand

Thunderstorm over the Tasman sea late at night on the Wild Westcoast of New Zealand

A mesmerizing dance of light and shadow unfolds across the turbulent Tasman Sea, as a ferocious storm unleashes its electrifying fury. Each bolt of lightning pierces the inky blackness, illuminating the churning waves below in a fleeting, ethereal glow.

As the sun dips below the horizon, seagulls dance above the rugged rocky outcrops, painting the sky with their graceful silhouettes.

A timeless dance of light and shadow, where the sun's rays pierce through the clouds, casting a luminous embrace on the rugged rocks and majestic cliffs.
