Shetland nights

Shetland offers many photo opportunities not just during the day

Just recently, the Aurora has been showing for several nights hopefully more to come before the year end

These red lights on top of wind turbines will be more problematic when the Viking Wind Farm is constructed destroying our night sky in the central mainland

The lights will be seen 25 miles away so might be more difficult for Aurora photography from this location at Tingwall loch



Cloud and light pollution, together with Christmas lights always causes problems. This looking towards Ireland near Bigton

Up to the great event, we were able to see Jupiter and Saturn getting closer. The problem on the night was cloud but very strong winds before caused a lot of issues trying to photograph it
