Very good JK!

In the meantime I have been playing...

I have had a right royal battle to create the video, iMovie was being particularly belligerent but I beat it into submission and I won!

Hope it works for you.

Nice one Robert.
All the effort was worthwhile.
In the still it is not obvious that the dark grey section is cloud until you see the video.

I have 147 for you once you've done Roberts! :lol:

Didn't realise you weren't seeing it with the naked eye Robert. I do actually see it up here but it is not bright green or anything like it. Most of the time it is a greyish streak in the sky. On Hogmanay it was the brightest I've seen it and actually looked green but it was only a pale minty green. People hike up the saturation on their pics to ridiculous levels and unsuspecting onlookers think the aurora actually looks like that. It may be much greener to the naked eye when an exceptionally strong burst hits the earth or maybe it's much the greener the closer to the pole you get but I have only ever seen a pale streak. The camera exaggerates the green quite significantly. I try to edit my pics so they are reasonably realistic but to bring out the detail in the sea etc in the pic above for example, made the aurora a lot greener than it actually was.

Nice video Robert! I was going to try and do the same with my pics but not sure if I've got the patience to do it lol.

I like the detail in the hills JK. Now mix that with the dark starry firmament.

How about this version.
Problem is that variations are almost endless.
