Tingwall stars



Nights are now drawing out and we have very little darkness. The Aurora has been visible very late on but only captured by a few folk.

                      We had been visiting up at Tingwall and took advantage of a clear night with very little wind





The wind turbines cast a red reflection on Asta Loch, but to see 103 Turbines looking north would certainly be a blight on the landscape and would show up on every Aurora photograph so I hope they never get started


Although not completely dark I like the blue sky and you can also use a lower ISO which helps reduce noise.

Looking south to Scalloway, light pollution is clearly visible, especially now LED lights have been installed





                                                                                                   Looking west

          Just waited for car headlights to light up the old vicarage which adds a lot of depth to the photo



                                                                                      Another looking West


To keep up with the vents in the Shetland Night Sky join  us on facebook at Shetland Aurora Hunter.

Don't forget my new blog ww2preserved.blogspot.co.uk with many Shetland links
