Shertland sunset meets the Aurora

 The last few days we have lots of red alerts but Saturday was the only night to be clear.










Most people think they only can see the aurora around midnight at this time of year but as these photos tell thats not always the case

The Aurora appeared even before it started to go dark. A thin green band reaching out to the orange glow of a sunset down at St Ninian's isle






It was fairly still on the beach, a bit of a contrast to higher up where the wind was strong. I was happy to capture some colour in the sea , even with a longish exposure

The moon was no problem , not even showing this early in the night, around 9.30-10.45
