Took these in 2004.
My intention was to do some deepsky imaging but the sky started to look a little murky. I removed the camera from the telescope, attached a F1.8 nifty fifty and took a series of 10second shots at 800iso. The camera was a Canon 300D.

Stunning
Wooooow👌
I was lucky enough to go there a few years ago to Tromso.
It is a sight you never forget, and is sometimes indescribably.
Looking to be a good viewing of the northern lights show tonight
Great show of the Northern lights here in Norfolk , just been outside watching them , mostly pink with lite blue surround but very pretty, tomorrow night as well apparently
Wow! Right overhead, in front of the Plough constellation, in Manchester - EOS77D with Sigma 18-35mm f5,6 lens - 6 to 10s long exposure on Manfrotto tripod at ISO1600
Honor 10 Lite in ‘Night’ mode. 12s, ISO 400. 30 images approximately 10s apart.
Taken up at Harborough rocks. Yeah, I nudged the tripod a couple of times.
Balloch, West Dunbartonshire.
Sony A65 & Sigma 10-20mm @1600ISO 2s around 150 images in total
Has anyone north of the Watford gap, managed to capture the Aurora Borealis? Spectacular show last night and apparently again tonight if you’re lucky enough to have clear skies. Sadly, not here is Hampshire
A quick search for Aurora Borealis shows non-drone and drone pics posted .. eg, by drone .. Aurora borealis over Wales - #7 by Andy.S
Thick, grime here in “sunny Blackpool “, not a hope in hell of seeing Aurora 
Tricky planning for this I’d imagine. Needs a foreground, I think, like town lights or some identifiable landmark, otherwise one might aswell take it from the ground. I took this last year, with my phone. Really impressed with what this little chips can do now.
Same here! I think the only lace with any sign of sun is northern Scotland at the mo’
Not sure why this topic has been unlisted (@OzoneVibe?) because I presume @Nikonitis was not asking whether anyone had ever seen the aurora borealis, he was actually asking whether anyone had managed to view it in the past week when there has reportedly been very strong solar activity and the aurora has been visible in the southern half of the UK. I am not sure why that would not be worthy of discussion (albeit the topic may be posted in the wrong category).
Anyway, I am in London and I was keeping an eye on solar storm activity the other night. I was planning to go out if I saw a spike in activity but there was nothing. I found out the following morning that activity had jumped and peaked literally 20 minutes after I went to bed. I was not best pleased! I also missed out when the aurora was visible across the UK in May last year.
I am not sure what the aurora forecast is for the next few days but it always seems so unpredictable (plus it’s cloudy and pouring down with rain now).
