Northern Lights over Donegal
-
A few photos of mine from thursday evening where one of the best Aurora displays I’ve ever seen was on show
I only had about 15 mins spare as I had to be somewhere else and didn’t get to a few other spots that I wanted to get to for photographing the Aurora.
These were taken at my local beach in Culdaff Co Donegal and I’m sure you all seen the shots all over the web from the area1. I’m selling this wee car and thought this would make a good advert photo

Well done Cathal, the colours look truly amazing. Number 1 should certainly help sell that car for you. Will you be out again tonight, they’re promising clear skys for the northern half of the country tonight.

unfortunately the media don’t do much research into these things and let people think that just because the skies are clear we shall see them, it takes quite a number of factors to come together so we can see them, and tonight is not one, local hotels up here have advertised seeing the northern lights tonight and have over booked the hotel and are contacting other hotels to try and get these people accommodation for something they wont see… Greed is an awful thing…….this is a decent site for checking readings you need at least a kp of 3 to get a faint aurora up here http://www.aurora-service.eu/aurora-forecast/” onclick=”window.open(this.href);return false;
That’s terrible, it was on the RTE news at 6.00 that there was a great chance to see the northern lights tonight, urging people to travel northwords.

Very nice shots Cathal. I used to live in a fishing village called Lybster in the NE of Scotland and you bring back some memories with these images.
Love the photos
I like the 2nd as it shows that you were out that night and took the photos of it. I also like the 3rd one.
There is a creep that live near me who says what I have photos of on that night are not the aurora just because he did not go out and take photos of it and also because I did not ring or send him a text to say the aurora was active.
