This night was magic in northern Oklahoma.
A meteor shower peak, strong storms, with a rare appearance from the northern lights. This is a six-image stack with the best meteors from 20 minutes around the base image of storm and aurora
The storms were over by Pond Creek, Ok at this time, and I had to do some quick thinking to get into the best location to frame storms and potential aurora before it got dark.
It was a mad rush at sunset to try and get to a spot with as little light pollution as possible, no mean feat given all the wind turbines in the area.
The aurora got extremely active around 11:15pm, so much so that I could clearly see the dancing curtains with my eyes. With meteors zipping all around,  I will not forget that for a long time
It was an all nighter of aurora,meteors, storms, and sprites. Heaven on earth
