Timelaspe from the aurora-cam looking north on 2026 01 19-20
Fantastic display which rather overloaded the camera at some points. And even when most of the aurora had gone south there was still things going on to the north #rousay #orkney #astro

Midhowe Cairn on the island of Rousay. The image shows an extensive rectangular cairn seen from one end with a passage running through it from lower left to upper middle of the frame. Above the cairn is a metal structure supporting a curved roof with large skylights. This is supported on stone walls that can be seen either side of the cairn.
Inside the vast and impressive Midhowe Cairn on the island of Rousay in Orkney. 23m long internally and 32.5m long externally and with 12 compartments or stalls, it is thought to have been built in around 3500BC. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

The annoying thing about aurorae is when you have to shoot a comet through them. C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) and the northern lights! #aurorae #orkney #rousay #astro @theorkneynews.bsky.social

Comet c/2025 A6 (Lemmon) was visible from #Rousay #Orkney this evening. A brief gap in the cloud - but the comet was easily visible in binoculars. And here is a 4 min exposure using a Seestar S50. @theorkneynews.bsky.social @astroroyalscot.bsky.social
