Imaging Challenge #4 - Noctilucent Clouds - Winners

[admin]

Noctilucent Clouds proved elusive for many of us, but luckily some of you managed to spot some and we had some superb entries.

Well done to all the winners!

Congratulations all - stunning examples

There were some amazing images posted. I was quite disappointed, in that I didn't see any NLC this year at all.

Well done to all entrants, not only did you get to see these lovely clouds, but you got a picture or two as well.

Congratulations all - what fabulous photos!  I've never seen them, but these pictures inspire me to make more effort next nlc season ?

Fabulous images

Thanks everyone, it was quite a poor season for them and I got lucky on the particular night (I almost missed them as I was heading for bed).

Hopefully next year there will be more opportunities to image these and if they put on a display like they did for me you will be very pleased seeing them, they really are impressive, even visually, so it isn't just for the photographers. Obviously photos are more vivid but seriously they are/were bright...I think in one of my short video clips I am heard stating my amazement (with a few expletives) to that fact...

Congrats. on winning the Noct.. Comp Stuart, a worthy choice.   All the entries can take pride in their images too, those pesky nocturnals can be elusive beggars.                                                          Well Done me lad. ?

Worthy winners!

Maybe next year...

 

[Stub Mandrel]

Well done all, I know they must have taken some tracking down let alone the skill of getting a good photo!

 

Any news of Challenge number 7? It's two and a half weeks overdue!

Congratulations to the winners and everyone who entered. Noctilucent cloud was a bit elusive this year, so anybody who managed an image has done well.

I managed a couple of glimpses after sunrise, but that was about it.
