This image was taken at Rangiuru Bay on the magical night of 11 May (@7.22pm) - when release of energy from the sun known as a CME (coronal mass ejection) was at a 20 year high. Aurora was visible across New Zealand that night for many hours. The peak of activity at Lake Tarawera was just before 9.00pm when shafts of light danced across the sky putting on an incredible show.
