Just been out in our street, what a FABULOUS sight

IMG_2681

There’s a technical explanation about ice crystals that sometimes more clever than me will explain properly but it looks amazing. You can even see Jupiter really clearly with the naked eye

BTW that is not JJ Abrams style lens flare, the umbra is really there. Go and look

It really is something I've never witnessed before. Worth standing out in -3 temps outside.

And i've got wall to wall northern lights...

Northern lights

Not actually my photo, but my house is pretty much dead centre of the shot, but hidden in the forest.

No halo, aurora or other celestial phenomenon here in the Cairngorms, just a clear, still night.

There's similar visible here in E Shropshire, but we're partly clouded over, so only really getting the 'top section' (i.e the northern half, effectively) of the ring; I'll not bother with a photo in the circumstances. Mrs Lawman is rather underwhelmed....
