Beautiful!

Could you see it with your naked eye - just in some reports said they could only be seen by a camera and that made me think well how would you know where to take the photo? πŸ˜‚

β€’ in reply toAnnscottie

Definitely the naked eye and very beautiful it was to πŸ’œ

Oh, my word! You've done it again! What a stunning photo. Well done for staying awake. We couldn't see the lights from our house although we went outside in the hope of catching something, but some neighbours around the corner got good urban photos, as did our son who saw them from his window. He said he couldn't see them with the naked eye but the camera still got them.

We're in Eastbourne but our daughter saw them in Cumbria, 400 miles away. The whole country must have been lit up.

Your photo is definitely one to treasure. Xx Moy

We didn't get the lights here in Cardiff either!

How are you and Socks the cat getting on?

Here there is a very handsome black and white cat that lives nearby that has a white bib and white socks as markings!

We're ok, thanks. We enjoyed our long weekend in Cwmbran two weeks ago but since coming back have had nasty coughs and colds. Both feeling better now, though. Socks came back from the cattery with a new miaow! She sounds like the cat who was in the next pen! They enjoyed a good old spitting session when she first arrived but by the time we got back they were friends. Lol!

She's pleased to be home and joining us when we go to bed. She just snuggles down in the dip between us for a while then takes herself off to her own bed when we put the light out.

Love to Baby from Socks. Xx Moy

Thankyou so much Moy there was certainly a few areas that didn't see anything but I'm pleased I got the opportunity to just witness it for a while ...I absolutely adore Cumbria enjoy the weekend πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

how beautiful. On Thursday night if you got out of San Antonio you could see the lights that are usually only available in places like Alaska. I didn’t get to see it but saw it on the news 🐞🐞

I think it’s called the Aurora Borealis (spelling 🐞)

β€’ in reply toNicholatracy

Yes you have the name very correct here we just call them the Northern Lights ...The Northern Lights is a very old Scottish song 😍
