Why do my photos look so dark until I click on them?

The post is deleted; not sure if you meant to do that. Since you are the poster, you can see the deleted post; it looks greyed out. I have moderator superpowers, so I can see it, too.
I copied your photo links from the deleted post and posted your pics below.

Mark did you delete your photos? Please repost if you can!
Here is what the northern lights looked like through my phone’s camera, in our backyard last night:
cid:2607FD41-3B30-4560-B06D-832787A5DF28
This is the first time I’ve “seen” them. Once you knew where to look, you could sort of tell there was something there, like that part of the sky wasn’t the same, but we’re too far south for it to be visible with the naked eye.
Still it was really neat. When I told Mr SK “let’s go outside,” he didn’t believe me. But then when he saw it through his phone, he was sort of stunned.

Some locals took pictures at the top of Loveland Pass. They look great.
It was cloudy when I looked out and I did not check again. -

I think that's what happened. The post got deleted, but here on Beta it still shows as a post with no content. Unless you have superpowers... I can see deleted stuff .
Here are @Mark 's photos.

Wow!! How cool! Down here, we just had the little arc of pink, not all the variations.

Gorgeous!
I can see why people go to the trouble of traveling specifically to see them, there's nothing like the experience of seeing it yourself. (Here I'm thinking of the solar eclipses I've seen, because I've not yet seen the Northern Lights other than through my phone camera).

Very faint to nonexistent here in NYC, doubtless because of all the ambient city lights (and we are 8 miles from Manhattan, in the least populous borough).
