Cloudy Aurora

[saturn5]

Just typical that on a night that we get hit with a G2 class storm that it would be cloudy.The cloud cleared for about 15 mins but there was still a low band of it to the north so all i managed to get was a green strip of aurora and the surf rolling up the beach.

Definately not a show stopper but more a case of what might have been.Ive seen a few shots from of last nights aurora taken from the Faroes and the aurora was really high in the sky. 15 secs 40mm @ f4 ISO 1600

At least you got to see and capture something of the display .. I am just thinking what might have been if the clouds hadn't been there to spoilt it for you...

hmmm...I'm in NE Scotland and I didn't get my warning email until midnight when I was asleep in bed.

There is a slight chance of a repeat tonight, I'll have a look out for it. We currently have clear blue skys right now, so hopefully that'll last in to the night.

We've had so many nights of cold (-46) and clouds that I haven't been outside much. I'm sure there were auroras and maybe one night, the weather will cooperate!

Now that is cold!!!! The good thing about temps that low is that they're almost the same in deg F or deg C.

Brilliant pic S5, Yours too John, I'm sure I came across it yesterday in the spaceweather gallery.

The jealousy is so *not* seeping out all of my pores!

All lenses to the 3rd of March.
