First aurora of the season taken on Thursday 11th Nov.
The first 2 are looking across the Pentland Firth with the Hoy hills on the horizon.
The last one is from my garden.

Yep,me too.There are a lot of meteor showers over the next month as well as the normal
"sporadic" ones.I was out taking star trails at Harolds Tower on Wednesday evening and this really bright meteor whizzed by just out of shot.Sometimes you get them,more often than not you dont.
