Description

Words fail me , an astronomical event occurs as forecast , under clear skies , and what a show it was too ...

I've caught hints of the aurora in the northern horizon once or twice , but to see it stretching beyond the zenith and to the south of me , naked eye here in Suffolk ..... !

So glad most got to witness the spectacular sight and apologies to those who missed out , you're going to be fed up to the back teeth of seeing it plastered over every platform imagiable for the next few days ... 😉

Had a few issues photo-wise here , I'm out of practice messing about in the middle of a field in the dark with the camera not tethered to a laptop. In such a rush to get shooting with the display reaching right across the sky from West to East that I forgot to switch off the AF , caught the lights though which is what mattered to me ... 

P.S.  I need a wider lens , the 10mm wasn't near wide enough ...
