Scottish Highlands Northern Lights 26th of February 2023

The northern lights alerts were coming on for northern scotland and this was forecasted to be a good one but to see this aurora weaving across the sky at the 57th latitude is very rare but recently we have been getting stronger storms further south than usual.

The temperature dropped below -10 here at findhorn on the moray coast in northern scotland.

This display was seen like this away down in middle england photographs have been appearing all over twitter, instagram and the news.

I also seen a tweet that the southern light have been seen in southern australia and new zealand enjoy in the beautiful display.

I am not here to plug my social media but i have posted more images at twitter @morayfirthphoto if you would like to look the patterns and colours were amazing.

Thank You definitely a bucket list location for viewing the northern lights, I live locally so I get to see some nice views of the night sky and northern lights.

I'm not thinking of the northern lights, I'm thinking of the highland games. I enjoy sports photography and travel, and this is one of the ultimate combos in the world. Not to mention the atmosphere and history.

These images are awesome. I photographed northern lights in Iceland Jan/Feb and am leaving for Norway next week! Hope the activity remains high!
