Northern Lights in Maine

Northern lights (aurora borealis) as seen from Maine.
Most of the activity was early in the evening before the moon came up. What looks almost like daylight is actually moonlight that appears so bright because of the long exposures used to capture the night sky.
You can also see the "Big Dipper" (Ursa Major, Great Bear) rotating counter clockwise through the night.
