Stargazers have caught a glimpse of the northern lights in Gedling borough with a beautiful light display spotted in places such as Arnold and Burton Joyce.
The aurora borealis splashed vivid colours over the borough on Thursday night, with bright red and green lights seen in the sky.
Borough residents quickly rushed out of their doors to snap stunning pictures of the rare phenomenon – with some reporting seeing “the sky dance” in the early hours of the morning.
Borough resident and talented photographer Tammy Mills was one of the many to capture the event in the skies over Burton Joyce last night…
The Met Office had previously said a severe solar storm heading for Earth means the aurora borealis could be visible across parts of the UK for several nights.
The forecaster said in a post on X said: “A coronal mass ejection from the sun is earth bound and whilst there’s some uncertainty on its arrival time, sightings of the #aurora are likely in northern areas with a slight chance in the south too.”
