Northern Lights UK - post your photos
Did anyone see the Northern lights last night as it's said to be viewable across the whole of the UK?
I missed it but it should be viewable from 22:30 this evening if the sky's are clear.

Post your pictures if you managed to see.

Re: Northern Lights UK - post your photos
I got a few decent photos in central Scotland last night in my garden. With a not so great Android phone I might add. A few friends got quite spectacular efforts.

Very nice, I'm trying to find out the best settings for Samsung S20FE camera before I fall asleep waiting!

These were taken on an S20FE night mode I think with a 2-3 second exposure time.

Is the exposure in the bottom right hand corner when in night mode as I was playing with that earlier?

Re: Northern Lights UK - post your photos
I think you need to go into “pro” then adjust settings in there. I don’t have it to hand at the minute I’ll check when I do.
It might have been the default night setting - Essentially when taking a photo it suggests to keep it still for 2-5 seconds while it processes it.

Yes I did see a 5 second countdown on night setting.
Unfortunately all I see is a normal sky and I can't stay awake too long as I have a flight in the morning!

Re: Northern Lights UK - post your photos
I don’t know enough about the data but the app I use gives me a 1% chance of seeing it in the next half hour. Last night it was 90% when I took the photos. Other measures were largely off the charts in terms of solar activity.

Re: Northern Lights UK - post your photos
Got a few good photos last night just around midnight. Dalmarnock on the outskirts of Glasgow. Can never get them to upload as says too large.

I never did see anything looking out house bedroom windows so had to give up as had to be up early.
