Fantastic photos, we get to see the aurora borealis where I live a lot of the time especially on clear winter or summer nights. Solar flare activity make it more visible/active.

How far north have you got to go, Scotty. Are sightings reliable? I have always wanted to see them, but I thought you had to be north of the Arctic Circle.

I see them up at my cottage in the summer too..they're spectacular.

LOL the Arctic Circle!? We're quite a ways from there! Though sometimes in the winter you could be convinced you are near it.

In North West Highlands they're a regular sight. The Western Isles are a good spot. The Isle of Skye, John O Groats, Wester Ross Coastal etc.

Best time to view them at their most clear is end of September - end of March between 11pm - 4am
