QuoteSky light by Roman Noven...This photo is popular over web as "Aurora borealis" or "Northern lights" but actually it's a man-made art project .)

I've never seen aurora with such sharply defined edges. And that third image is quite the jumble of brushwork. So... Photoshop? I think Photoshop.

I don't think Photoshop, I think more optical effects due to light refraction... may be!


They most likely are artwork  I have not seen any aurora curtains this sharply defined or that color

 :) None the less beautiful! Talent needed for the creation if it is art.
