Finally someone pointed it out ๐ I love very far north and we have these almost every night (except now to August, as it never gets dark) and everyone simply posts enhanced versions, that you never see like that.
Except you have no idea how other people are seeing the auroras.
My own color vision got more vivid when I started meditating, and psychedelics have often given me hyper intense color perception. Sometimes even just sitting and imagining colors will open up new levels of vividness even in my imagination.
So shouldn't your perception of people's subtle/muted aurora pictures also be hyper intense, making those muted colors more accurate?
Bullshit
