A nice capture - my astronomer's heart is with you - but too dark overall. I want to believe that you could have pulled more out of this in post processing, but I don't know what your raw image was like. You've got three elements to work with, which is two more than most astrophotographers start with: sky, aurora, and foreground. You've got to find a way to really punch one or more of those - detail and some color in the foreground, boosting the contrast and brightness of the aurora, etc. Elinias' shot is an example:
