What: A green auroral curtain with the Pleiades (also known as the Seven Sisters) rising above the tree line.

When: 8 October 2012
Where: Canada
Who: James Baker

What our judges said: “The aurora looks particularly eerie in this shot with dark clouds punctuating it. We also liked the composition with a hint of a lake and the trees silhouetted against the sky. The appearance of the Pleiades just above the tree-line is a nice addition to the image.”
