Default Aurora now!

Ruined by those blasted street lights here!

Having said that though, looking to the north now I can make out a faint white
glow which is unusual in that direction. Reminiscent of the light cast by a
bright moon. No other colours visible unfortunately.

Mike, any chance you have a digital camera at the ready?


Hi Joe

Yes I have, but had to give myself a crash course in manual settings:-)

I did most of these at f2.8 over 15 seconds, once I had learned how to do
it. Sadly, I missed the searchlight effect that was clear a little
earlier.
