A close-up look at AR13664 from my garden. This was taken on the same morning of the Geomagnetic storm - May 10th. The sunspot region we have to thank for Friday's show!

When I saw the auroral corona appearing overhead, I knew exactly where I wanted to run to capture it, to the base of the lighthouse so I could have it pointing right into it.

A #timelapse of the #Aurora from last night from North Yorkshire. It shows the stunning corona from 23.34 to 23.53 BST on 10 May. Absolutely incredible to witness. I could see the movement and colours with the naked eye. What a sight! #Auroraborealis#NorthernLights@bbcweather
An ultra close-up shot of sunspot region 3664 this morning with my 16" scope under great conditions.
This region is so big it's visible to the unaided eye (with eclipse glasses of course!)

It's been amazing seeing all the posts from last night. So many people seeing the aurora for the first time, apart but still together. It's heartwarming and once again space twitter has shown it's the place to be. ❤️ What was your experience like?

The Needle Galaxy NGC4565 captured on Sunday evening with the 16" scope. Just 30 mins of data under (presumably) good seeing conditions.
Some fine details visible here - very pleased with the result! #telescope#astrophotography
