When your barometer “bottoms out” #Aberdeenshire #Scotland #StormÉowyn

Some from the last few days. The first one, the red/purple arc visible in the sky is known as a SAR. It is not part of the true Aurora but is a rare thermal phenomenon seen when Aurora activity is present. Other notable mentions in this picture, from bottom left to centre top, are Sirius, Orion, Jupiter and the Pleiades. The other two are more Aurora shots from previous nights. It is always interesting to see the different colours that the Aurora can produce #Aberdeenshire #Scotland #SAR #Aurora

What better way to end the year than with some of nature’s own fireworks. Taken as the bells were ringing last night 🇮🇲Blein Vie Noa 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Bliadhna mhath ùr #Aberdeenshire #Scotland #Aurora #Hogmanay
