    I'm on a campsite in Pembokeshire and it's beautiful, literally beautiful!

    Never seen anything like it. Lapland was good but mostly green. This is stunning.

    Difficult to escape light pollution on the London borders, but I have taken a walk onto the local golf course and it is now evident in red and green streaks.

    Someone is going to call the police on me soon, haha

    Luckily we have fields out back. This is above my house.

    It’s amazing.

    I first saw it in Lapland, then an amazing show in Iceland but what I am seeing in Wiltshire beats both of them.

    Never seen it pink before!

    I am rather jealous. Nothing visible here in NW London. :-(

    Went driving up a local hill, it was stunning , a huge arch of light from the North East to the North West. Just visible as a reddish glow with the naked eye , then using an iphone on night setting it was stunning.

    Gratuitous MX5 inclusion as this is TZ

    The aurora!

    Aurora is back tonight. Anyone know if it is going to be a strong and still dip as far south.

    Edit : found my answer

    Some fantastic photos in this thread, thank-you. This one isn't in that category unfortunately, and the phone made it a lot more obvious than it was to the naked eye. Too much light pollution to the north I think (Coalville). From NW Leics.

    Nice pics and we got a good show up here.

    However, if I recall correctly, back in the 70s the sky looked like that most Friday nights
