On Monday Oct 8, 2012, while on a security watch at my boat club on the Ottawa River not far from downtown Ottawa, I spotted a green glow just after sunset but it was quickly blocked out by a band of cloud. Fortunately the clouds cleared about 45 minutes later and I was treated to a lovely display of Northern Lights. I did this sketch in graphite then reversed it in Paint Shop Pro and added the colour.

Keep looking up and jotting down
