These images were taken at Andrew's Mare Pond, near Minstead, New Forest, Hampshire on 10-11th May 2024 and October 10-11th 2024. I chose this location because, I wanted to get the aurora reflected in the pond. It was an amazing experience, both times. In the may 2024 aurora, which was the biggest predicted aurora in 20 years, so after swotting up on some how to shoot aurora module, from my Milky way magic course by kristine rose photography, I went to this location of to get myself set up and ready. As soon as it got dark, the aurora was visible through my camera very clearly, I took many images on 3 cameras that night and also saw some columns that looked like diffuse laser displays. In October, I wasnt as lucky with the weather or timing, I had to go to cubs 1st, and there was a lot of cloud. I was battling cloud for most of the night, but got a brief clear spell in the early hours of the morning, however, I was so excited to see some vivid red through the clouds, which if it had been clear, I would have seen a Sar arc, but seeing that vivid red through the clouds, I was doing a happy excited bounce ( jumping up and down). There have been a number of aurouras since, none of which I have managed to see, either because of weather or bad timing, pointing my camera in the wrong place, etc, but at least I have seen two amazing ones in the south of the UK.
