I didn't check the route and miss the second defensive line near Pohořelice so no bunkers this time.

Because of high solar activity there was aurora visible even at my location. But my Samsung ai did heavy lifting there it looked more like light smog.

Second photo is of last building still standing after construction of our nuclear plant and demolition of 3 vilages.

The third photo is of stream crossing that really suprased me, steep downhill then breaks, off the bike to check for rocks to not end up in it.

I don't take much photos so this is all I got.

I am living all behind the moon currently. Is the aurora still going on? I have only learned about it via lemmy. Can i see it in spain? :)

I don't know, if someone didn't point it out to me I would think that it is light pollution from some nearby town. It is really faint red glow from the top part of aurora, the nice green and blue colors are made in lower parts of atmosphere behind the horizon. Also clear night made the observation of it easier. The AI image enhancement did really heavy lifting there, it looks nothing like that to naked eye.

So if it is visible there, you may already seen it and didn't think much of it.
