I was out walking the dog last night and was surprised to see the northern lights, or the Aurora Borealis was visible. From the village and naked eye a pale ghostly red glow, with an hint of green.
For a moment I wondered if it was light pollution from the near city or the local village tennis courts, but then realised with the positioning it could be none of these things. Finding a dark spot I took out my iPhone and quickly took a few snaps.
With these kind of results you can see why smartphone cameras have killed the cheap compact camera market.
Its low light performance and shake reduction for the long exposure is quite something.
A wonderful sight and something I hope to see again when I am maybe in a darker part of the country with a tripod and my more serious cameras.
