Aurora photographed 6th November 2023 Brechiek Ynysek Syllan

Ever since I first saw the Aurora in Iceland in August and September 2023 while cycle touring for three months in Iceland I have taken every oportunity to observe and photograph the Aurora. Seeing them is just amazing and has been a life long dream and as we approach solar maximum I have seen them from Tresco and Brechiek Ynysek Syllan several times. Not as dramatic as they were in Iceland but to see them this far South ….. several times is quite extraordinary.

 

This image was taken using my mobile phone hand held and braced upon a dry stone wall. I set the camera to ISO 3200 and set to a 30 second exposure. This was taken just a few minutes walk from my home.

 

 

…. This next one was taken on the same night using the same settings 6th November 2023 at 21:16:25 pm ….

 

 

…. Now to start some new Aurora paintings …
