Okay, I can *kinda* see it from here if I look due north - first time I spotted it was a VERY slight distort, it seems to have been more active about 5-10 minutes ago, I initially thought I was seeing the milky way which would be pretty unusual here. I can pick up on some green with naked eye but this is all WAY more vivid with iPhone camera, which sadly doesn't take great photos tho I told myself I wouldn't photograph if I saw it, hopefully I haven't messed up

@Leucrotta Oooh!

Also it's OKAY to photograph it. 🧡

Also since your camera can see it better than your eyes can... it makes DOUBLE sense to photograph it.

@Leucrotta I looked earlier and couldn't see anything. But we're deep in an urban area and have a solid wall all around the place, so...

@Leucrotta I think the camera might be necessary unless you can find a place with reaaaallly low light pollution

Round 2 tonight it sounds like!
