Deeside Aurora 2016 vbn1760jhp Aurora Borealis Scotland first New Year 2016 display Aberdeenshire taken on the 31st December, 2015 at Crooktree, 25 miles west of Aberdeen caused over the UK from a glancing CME and a timely end to the year gift given that the previous three displays I missed because of cloud cover.
