    This photo has been horribly overworked, I admit it, but there is method in my madness.

    This was taken looking almost directly upwards from below a KP7 auroral display. It was quite cloudy but the aurora was so bright that it cast a shadow at my feet.

    When I first processed the image, I didn't think there was much of interest in it. More editing revealed these fabulous green beams, seeming to disappear into infinity.

  6. Well, i experienced some issues and I was not able to check into my flight back home. But I like to think that it was fate forcing this to happen so that I got to experience one of my greatest dreams.

    It was subtle to the naked eyes, but visible enough to notice it from my hotel window and to push me outside despite starting to develop a cold

  8. Northern Lights Over North Cork

    You don’t expect to stand in a field north of Blarney and watch the northern lights, but here we are. Last night the aurora put on a show visible well into southern Ireland. Bands of pink and magenta hung across the sky, bleeding into that unmistakable green glow along the horizon. To the naked eye nothing could be seen, but the camera pulled out colours that made the whole scene look otherworldly.

    A passing car lit up the bare trees on the ridge at just the right moment, backlighting them with a warm glow that played off the green aurora behind. It was one of those happy accidents you couldn’t plan if you tried. Even the electricity poles added something, a reminder that this was a country road in Cork, not the Arctic Circle. These events have become more frequent as we near solar maximum, so keep an eye on the Kp index and have a dark-sky spot in mind, because the next one might be even better.

  9. Noctourism: Why the Northern Lights will be even more impressive this winter - and where to see them.

    The elusive aurora borealis could put on its strongest performance this winter in over a decade, as solar activity reaches its peak.

    A solar phenomenon has led to ‘extraordinarily high’ demand for a quadfecta of prime-positioned destinations.
