| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I only happened to catch it while taking a photo, didn’t realize it was there till a few minutes later when checking the picture. I was trying to get a shot of the Aurora to the west, the picture was taken with an iPhone 17 pro with 3 seconds exposure. If there is any meta data that could be useful I would be glad to give you that. Because of it being seen in the picture a lot of the angles would be subjective to assumption |
