Cloud is always a problem with the Aurora, some nights its complete cloud cover and that's when a superb Aurora will be happening overhead.
Other times its part cover, as this night was and you get some tantalising views of the Aurora as it shows occasionally
It was at least dark until after total cloud came in so i used a bit of light painting to highlight the foreground
These were taken down at Maywick on the westside
You have to make sure where you are walking so a good torch is very important to get you to the spot where you can start to photograph
Another thing to watch out for is the tide coming in as sometimes it comes round the back of you and when its dark can be a hazard
Its always good to get some green reflecting on the sea
