From Alan Murphy

While photographing a Western Screech-Owl carrying food to its young, I was fortunate to capture the northern lights looks at night. South Eastern Arizona, 30 miles from the Mexican border.

    I thought so myself. I didn’t pay much attention to where it was supposed to be since it was cloudy and rainy the whole time where I’m at.

    I did go back to the post and read the comments, and some people did mention a few opinions as to this photo’s authenticity and potential ethical issues. I debated bringing them up here, but I think I have another article where for later that it may be relevant to, so I think I’ll save it for that and let people enjoy this now.

    The pair of downvotes this had gotten already leads me to believe some of you have likely the same criticisms in the Facebook comments. I’d rather people politely point out to us non-photogtaphers how to spot these things instead of just clicking the down arrow, but we’ll work with what we have.

    For now, I’ll say this photo is based on a true story! 😜
