@stim3on Beautiful pics. What a phenomenon. Around what time should one head outdoors to see this? I'm in Cologne and fear light pollution will obscure everything.
Unobstructed Northern horizon is important and the less light pollution in that direction the better.
It might be worth driving a little outside the city if you can manage.
@tobie1 you'll want to wait until astronomical twilight starts which is around 22:43 in Cologne.
