The Northern Lights Visit the South ~ Skywatch Friday

Hello friends and fellow bloggers,

I took the following photos on August 12th. I saw this glow in the sky which I'd not seen before so decided to take some photos. The next day I read that the city had experienced the aurora borealis or the northern lights but that was on August 8th.  I think what I captured was the tail end of it. I thought the sky looked pretty cool.


I actually grew up seeing the dancing northern lights during the winter months.  They look a lot different which is why I didn't know what I was looking at. I enjoyed seeing them because I missed them when they visited earlier.














Thank you for visiting my Skywatch blog post today. I hope you enjoyed.  I hope you will visit again soon.

I remember northern lights when I was a kid on the farm. we played outside in the evening. They were also very prominent in northern Sask.

Beautiful skies! I had a similar experience one night out taking pictures of the Milky Way in the desert. I didn't realize what I was seeing was northern lights until the following day!

Dear Joyful 🥰
Wow you have captured some very awesome photos of the fading northern lights 🤗♥️♥️♥️👍
You said you grew up seeing northern lights in winters which makes me think that you live in some Europe or Scandinavian country???
Sorry you can correct me if I am wrong ☹️
I enjoyed the glimpse of leaving northern lights thoroughly because I had watched them in videos only and they look so fascinating always 🤗🥰♥️
Thank you for sharing my sweet friend 🥰♥️♥️♥️
