Shetland massive aurora

Shetland Aurora hunter on facebook was bombarded with requests to join and numerous photos

The best part of the show happened when we were in a concert but it was still going 3.5 hours later around 11.30pm

Lots of Red, pink, orange showed this was a powerful one and the aurora was seen far south into Europe

Possibly the best in 40 years

It was also a calm still night and a few people heard the aurora calling
