Stevo Fife Posted October 31, 2021 Author Share Posted October 31, 2021 Popped up to the Cairngorm mountain yesterday (as you do) because we heard the Northern Lights (aurora borealis) were likely to be seen. First time attempting to photograph this phenomenon. A cold windy night but amazing to see. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you enhance anything or is that pretty much how it looked with the naked eye? Spectacular shot anyway, with the stars almost perfectly still. What kind of exposure length did you need? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the naked eye it's pretty much black and white. You can see the flickering and looks pretty spectacular. You need a tripod and a long exposure. That shot was an 8 second exposure. ISO 4000 and WB 5000 Kelvin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be a couple of boats going out that are being very respectful. We went out with Calypso Sea Safaris but there was another chap under the name of Sea Hunter Marine that's also had folk getting good photos from his boat. I'm currently enjoying all of the hysterical middle-aged woman over on the Facebook sightings page slagging off anyone who dares to book themselves onto one of the trips. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're going to wait until mid January before we try to book up. A few boats going now but closely monitored by BDMLR which is the right thing. I'm on the page you're referring to. I've been going down to Kinghorn regularly since the first sightings back in 2017. Great to see them and becoming a regular winter visitor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
