Northern Lights

Post by Rich Tea Wellin »

Anyone catch these last night? Spent about an hour in the garden in mid-Essex last night marvelling at the sky. Pretty special

Our daughter enjoyed the light spectacular from her garden in Cambridgeshire.
Rang to tell us she was seeing them, nothing here just outside Edinburgh.
Who would gave guessed that?

Never will, its because the eye and the camera capture the light differently.
Many photos are taken using long exposure plus the camera renders it as programmed by its software.

Lucky enough to be in NZ at the moment and saw the Aurora Australis/Southern Lights tonight. Absolutely incredible, never experienced anything like it.
