Shetland Sky: Shetland moonlit aurora

Wednesday, 26 February 2025

Auroras are good at anytime but i prefer a bit of moonlight to light up the foreground, and you can use a lower ISO so less noise

these were taken down at Sandsayre under a strong aurora

Shetland Storm Force photography: Shetland is a magical place to visit and even better to live in. You really feel close to nature, there is so much to see and learn. The landscape is for ever changing under the wind blown sky. Shetland has to be one of the best UK destinations for photography. The light is so clear and crisp, the weather is constantly changing giving superb cloud formations. Being a dark site destination Shetland is always going to be great for astrophotography, although very challenging with windy nights.
