Another 'oldie' from June 20th 2005 taken from a large football pitch behind my old home in Maghera showing an intense NLC display. I recall standing within the dark pitch on my own in awe as these clouds seemed to glow with an eerie luminosity all of their own, I was shocked by just how bright they were at this hour in the middle of the night. I only had my old 5.2 MP Fujifilm Finepix E510 point and shoot digital camera for the job so the quality was very poor however I got my own record of the display anyway. Check out the length of these IIa and IIb bands (soft and hard edged) glowing pearly-white in the northern sky like an approaching spaceship. One of the goal posts can be seen on the left hand side, this was unintentional at the time as my NLC photography was still in its infant stages. * All images are available for sale in the form of photo prints, canvas or digital files for licensing, if you are interested in a purchase simply drop me an email.
