Skyumpi Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Managed to catch a bright-but-brief flare up of the Mirrie Dancers at the back o tea time last night. Apologies for the poor quality but I was really just nippin oot for a look and they went mad in the space of about 90 secs.This was a 28mm lens and shows probably about a third of the display that stretched from NW to NE. Headed out for dark places to try and get some proper shots but it all seemed to fall away to a background glow in no time. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8468/8392493092_a078814370_z.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8463/8391408417_f79baff98d_z.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8498/8391409035_866163fdc6_z.jpg Looks like there's a reasonable chance of more lights over the weekend, so have a look to the skies if you're out and about.
