A cloudy night but a bit of colour on the north coast of Scotland.
No need for an early rise to catch the sun coming up, on the negative side only around 10 hours of daylight
The clouds were shielding the aurora again tonight, a few meteors about. North coast of Scotland.
Even if the aurora is not performing is nice to be out under the stars
The forest floor up close at Achvarasdal, candlesnuff and dead man's fingers fungi
F 334 NRP Dom Francisco de Almeida in Loch Eribol. Presumably part of the north coast exercise although not sure why the Portuguese navy would have a RIB ashore unless they were nicking mussels for dinner ;-)
The Harvest moon rising through wispy clouds from the garden
Unfortunately the forecasted aurora came to nothing but always something in the night sky. A sporadic meteor (not associated with a know meteor shower) over a moon lit Brough Bay. A faint moonbow and part of a Starlink train.
A wee wander over the County border to see my Strathy neighbours. Adult and wee yin a wee bity drookit.
Clouds to the north last night, but clearer for a while to the south west. Shurrery ruins and the milky way. Two shot composites for the sky and foreground. North Scotland.
