I could keep going with the #Auroraborealis spam ...but I'll finish with this short clip of a blazing burst of light that was overhead at #bayoffirth #Finstown #orkney early on

And here's another two #shootingstars (going in opposite directions) looking at the #aurora overhead at the height of the #solarstorm #SolarFlare when the colours were most vivid and the movement most active #Orkney #scotland

For much of the peak of the #solarflare the #aurora was right overhead here in #finstown #bayoffirth #orkney #scotland and I saw no less than 5 #shootingstars here's one of them

I'm #colourblind but the #aurora was so bright tonight it lit the whole sky up and was easy to see even to my eyes 😍 #solarstorm #SolarFlare #aurora #orkney #Scotland

So the strongest solar storm in 40yrs didn't disappoint us up here in #orkney all the more glorious for a cloudless still night #aurora #merriedancers #northernlights #finstown #bayoffirth #wideford #orkney

Here's the latest piece about my preliminary MRes results reconstructing the Ness of Brodgar landscapes, still a bit more to do, I'm excited to see what more the final results will reveal 😍

Beautifully sunny and just a little wild out west today #bayofskaill #sandwick #westmainland #orkney #scotland #scottishbeach #scottishcoast #skarabrae

To celebrate and coincide with the final season of excavation, the Ness of Brodgar is the subject of a major new exhibition at the Orkney Museum this summer.

Looking across at #cuween #neolithic #tomb #wideford hill #grimbister and #damsay islands in the #bayoffirth #firth #orkney . We've had a wee bit of snow overnight 😍

So here's how a bit of how #orkney looks today - pretty #snowy ... This #webcam will show some impressive images when the barriers get splashy I would think orkanadventures.com/barrier-webcam
