What a day we had on Wednesday, watching Humpbacks (shetlandblogspot.co.uk) all morning then the Aurora at night
So fortunate living in Shetland with so much to see and photograph. It was totally calm throughout the day and although we did have some cloud at night it was near perfect for the Aurora
The equinox is always a good time to see the Aurora and this display didn't disappoint. It started about 9pm with a green arc caught on camera
It continued to develop and it had a nice purple band which added to the scene. It moved up to an Orange alert so we went to a new site at Maywick having already surveyed the area
It was pitch black, no moon to light the landscape so i did a small amount of light painting.
A house in the village, did the occupants know about the Aurora?
Plenty more information and photos on Facebook at Shetland Aurora Hunter just send a request to join
