Queste sono le foto che ho scattato circa 30 minuti fa e qui potete vedere abbastanza chiaramente il fenomeno… Ma la realtà è che non sono riuscito a vedere proprio nulla nel cielo.
Come molte persone, ho dormito durante il primo episodio di questo all’inizio di quest’anno e ho avuto una FOMO massiccia. Ma mi sto rendendo conto solo ora che quando l’aurora boreale si è verificata all’inizio di quest’anno, nessuno riusciva nemmeno a vederla. A riprenderlo sono state proprio le telecamere.

Those are nice pictures. I got some great ones myself tonight too. However I will have to disagree with your post. I could see the colours tonight with the naked eye, especially the reds. It’s certainly not as bright as you will capture on a camera but you can see it. You need to go somewhere dark away from light pollution.
I went to a remote part of the north coast of Northern Ireland to see them, while most of the time there wasn’t much to see with the naked eye, there was a short window of intensity where pillars of light came down from the sky and danced. It appeared grey to my eye, but others could see the colours clearly. The best photos I took where of that, the rest came out like sheets of tinted sky.
Omg I just tried this and it worked!! Thank you OP!! I missed them last time too!! And I missed them in Reykjavik a few years ago!!
Can’t really see with the naked eye but it’s coming up on my phone!
As someone from the far north of Scotland, they are very much visible with the naked eye.
I was just out with the dogs and bro it was so unbelievably pink and green in the sky. Maybe where you live there’s too much light pollution?
Saw it clearly from where I am.
EDIT:
I would edit the actual post if i knew how to, but I definitely stand corrected.
At around 0:30AM in North East England, you could very very clearly see bright green, red and pinkish colours in the sky. I think they’ve gotten more visible as the sky has gotten clearer. But WOW, it is certainly and incredible sight
I could see it with naked eyes tonight and back in May. It depends on light pollution in your area
I’ll be honest with you, we could see it with the naked eye last time, and I’m in the south east. I’m talking visible shapes. It wasn’t incredibly vivid but it was there. Our photos were crazy, it was waves of light. Just got back from seeing it tonight, and it wasn’t anywhere near as vivid as last time, but still worth it. Oh, and we could also see it in the sky with the naked eye, but only barely, and it wasn’t anything crazy.
I’m not trying to be a dick, but the FOMO is real, the last time was nothing short of spectacular.
I defo saw them with the eye from north oxford but definitely more vivid with the camera
Around 11pm for me it was barely visible with the naked eye, but just after midnight it was crazy. Very clear streaks of red all across the sky, it was amazing!
Last time it appeared it was so visible in the sky it was like Batman’s signal shining above my garden.
This time visible too to the naked eye. But you need to give your eyes 5-10 mins of no light to help your eyes adjust.
