The Aurora Borealis Orbs:

 

Well, until I saw the photographs captured from Jersey 2 nights ago, I had wondered why the sky had appeared to be so red in the photos I made down at Vazon on Thursday night. As it turns out, I have unintentionally managed to capture the faint hues of the Northern Lights in the background!

 

Sadly I used a very low ISO and a 6 minute long exposure to create this photograph which means that the hues of the aurora have turned out rather faint and wishy-washy, but it is better than nothing.

 

I am just amazed that the Norhern Lights made it this far down south, all the way to the Channel. That is just crazy.
