This page contains photos of the Aurora Borealis above Austria on November 20th, 2003. Aurora Borealis is a very rare event in Central Europe, and the Aurora of that evening was very special in intensity, colours, detail, and duration. I was lucky to stay at the Ebenwaldhöhe, Lower Austria, during that night, where I actually wanted to take some Deep-Sky astrophotos, which was rendered nearly impossible by the bright Aurora appearance. Photos are given in chronological order. Click here for an observation report of that event, in German.
