Stunning Northern Lights aurora over Anglesey & North Wales

May 11, 2024  •  Leave a Comment

An amazing aurora display of the Northern lights here in North Wales last night. I headed for Penmon lighthouse (Trywn Du) on the Isle of Anglesey hoping to capture the aurora and I wasn't disappointed. The Northen lights lit the skies above Penmon lighthouse for several hours, I arrived at 10.30pm and was still taking photos at 2.30am the next day. The aurora display was pretty spectacular with the skies full of amazing colours, at times almost like a rainbow. Feel free to have a browse of my North Wales aurora photos in my North Wales & Anglesey photo galleries.
