Aurora Borealis over the Firth of Clyde

Last night was a first for me, seeing the Aurora Borealis, the Northern Lights, for the first time with the naked eye in Scotland.

The Northern Lights were simply spectacular with their mixture of green, amber and red lights dancing through the sky between the South West and North West. Unfortunately there was a little bit too much cloud directly to the North.

I’m well pleased with these photos.

Aurora over Wemyss Bay

With an amber aurora alert in place, I went out late evening to capture the northern lights over the Firth of Clyde. Not the most impressive, but I managed to capture a faint aurora.
