Good shots Mikey, we had a good bit of cloud cover at Eoropie on the Isle of Lewis, but it did have the odd gap just after Midnight.

Excellent images. I really like the way you picked up the faint red glow, it's exactly the same as what I was seeing from here.

Who knows what tonight might bring, the magnetic field is likely to remain unsettled. It's worth monitoring the situation as we enter this evening. Fingers crossed for clear skies!

Awe inspiring...

I love the pic with the tree in the foreground... just contrasts with the colours nicely
