Seeing a complete Aurora Borealis is (still) one part of my personal bucket list. Two years ago in early October, I was closer to reaching this goal than ever before, but as the forecast was still moderate, this scenery at 2 am was the best I could achieve - this time!

Hope is the last to die. Better luck sometimes in the future (and no, even 2024 and 2025 didn't bring this thing to life!)!

I set up a camera last night and into this morning to catch any #aurora that might occur over the hills :) #auroraborealis #auroraphotography #aurorainscotland #perthandkinross

Will there be Aurora? On clear nights, I pop out and in constantly, taking test shots and keeping an eye on my Glendale App for alerts. If/ when #Aurora is spotted, I start a process of getting the setup right(ish) often it's hope for the best, especially with a waning Moon lighting up the sky. This is a set of shots I took while setting up last night April 3rd. Once ready, I start the Interval Shooting settings on the camera to capture a shot every 15 seconds, that can be made into a time-lapse clip today. #auroraborealis #auroraphotography #AurorainScotland #perthandkinross

Überraschende Polarlichter im Januar
19.01.2026, 22:18h MEZ/CET, bei/near Leipzig

🇩🇪 Nach Mai 2024 war dies eine weitere krasse Nacht, in der ich Polarlichter sehen konnte. Mit bloßem Auge ließen sich die Bögen bei ihren "Wanderungen" beobachten, allerdings wurden sie erst mit der Kamera grün statt weiß.

🇬🇧 After May 2024, this was another amazing night when I could see the Northern Lights. The arcs could be seen with the naked eye as they ‘wandered’, but they only turned green instead of white when captured on camera.
