A cracking sight that must have been, the reflection in the water and the street lights add to the picture too. Finished off very nicely by the framing of the trees

This is lovely, the green in the framing trees compliments the sky.

That is a stunning image. I am so envious of all of you folk that got to glimpse the aurora this week. I didnt even hear about it til after the event. If i'd known............i might just have had to take a road trip to Donegal (the most northern part of Ireland) to see if i could see it.

thank you so much for the lovely comment

at the time i took the photo the trees were lit up by the police station's security light which was high up on the embankment behind us (myself and spider72) but it was'nt bright enough to spoil our night vision,it looked like white light to me but the aurora must have tinted the light green,well thats what i think,i could be wrong

You're welcome, as I said before it's a lovely image.

It could be something to do with the aurora or a colour cast from the polices lights but usually you get a green cast from fluorescent lights.
